Anybody using Twitter? Personally, I absolutely don't understand what the craze is all about. I registered, looked around, posted 1 test tweet and never went back. I just don't get it I guess. What about you?

I personally do not use it. Although, I sort of want to make one just so I can follow some of my favorite bands and band members haha. A lot of them have little twitter things on their myspaces that I read all the time >>

Same as you, R.Q. My curiosity got the better of me one day and I registered. I was on for maybe 15 minutes searching for people I knew. Never went back. It just doesn't hold my attention to read what my favorite celebrities had for breakfast, or how their dandruff shampoo is working out. Ech.

Another no over here, I really don't get the whole needing to tell people what you're doing every single second of every day.
There was one time I was tempted to sign up..A live talk show was interviewing a favorite tv personality of mine and you could get your questions answered by "tweeting" them in.
Didn't have any questions to ask her though.

I don't see the point of Twitter when there's also Facebook, Myspace and a myriad of other networking sites. I'm on Facebook and that's enough.
I think Twitter's actually pretty silly -- it's kinda like a Live Journal, isn't it? x.x

I have an account, but I only joined to follow a celeb. I used my account once to try to spread the word of something, but it didn't work =[. I think Twitter is silly as well--I mean, it asked "What are you doing?" I believe, but obviously your would be Tweeting when answering that question . lol. ~Fall <33

I really don't like it. I never checked it out either. I mean, what's the point of posting small messages about your life. If people wanna know what I'm upto or doing, they could just as easily phone, text, e-mail, or message me of msn/aim/yahoo. Yeah. Call me old fashionate but I don't like some of these new ways to keep in touch.

I never even checked it out. I don't want it, and I don't get what the Twitter craze is about. o-o There's facebook for status updates, and tbh, I don't give a.... well, I don't care what celebrities are doing in their day-to-day lives.

Nope. x3
I don't want to get sucked in (although I've thought about making one simply for random musings).
I used to have a Myspace way back when, but not really anymore. I made a Facebook just because I heard you could play Orgeon Trail through it, but I guess not? xD Couldn't figure that one out.

I have one, and I use it fairly actively. I use it to get in contact with my friends easily when they aren't on MSN or Facebook. I'm apparently on two lists on Twitter and I've been chosen to beta test the ReTweet function. But yeah, I follow my favourite band members on there and some Let's Players. That's about it. I follow them to know when they post new videos, where they have some gigs, that's about it. I rarely use it to tell everybody if I'm eating but rather asking for help in a video game, haha.
edit: My celebrities, at least, rarely post what they do day to day but rather post in German or Japanese and they usually post when they got back from tour OR pictures of themselves ;P

^ haha yes thattt. I seriously just want a twitter for band member following x] I love reading the little twitter apps as is and its so fun to see their little pictures and all the other stuff they post. none that I look at post really silly stuff, like mapping their every action or anything.

Nope, I got my Facebook and that's all I need. Meh too. My sister uses it, but she complains to me that she doesn't get the point of it, and she's only using it because her friends are using.. I never hear the end of it!
