Now anyone one who knows me whould know I shun social networking sites because they are a royal waste of time. So why did I start using twitter?
Firstly twitter isn't so much a time wasteing social networking site and more of a club of stalkers. I have never used the likes of facebook and myspace but it seems horid. People around me seem to spend an outrageous amount of time adding photos, writing journals, writing on walls, sending messages, finding relatives, getting annoyed at spamy emails, etc. Whereas twitter is a simple 140 charcter outline of what you are currently doing or something you find interesting. It is fast and non time consuming.
Secondly a melbourne company called Kogan was offering a chance to win prizes if one followed their tweet. And hay a 1/500 chance to win a netbook is well worth the stigma over joining twitter.
