Twitter C/D

Oh yeah, there was an article and cover piece on twitter in Shortlist magazine the other week - going big time!

<3 s1ocki

what about to pompously lecture everyone about twitter on a message board, what's that all about

Because having discussions with an online community about all sorts of topics is the exact same thing as spewing your ennui to the entire world at an alarming pace. No qualitative difference could hope to be discerned.

spewing your ennui to the entire world at an alarming pace.

If you seriously think this is all Twitter is about you are more hilarious than I imagined.

Also for people who, for some reason, can't figure out what RSS is.

saw someone referring to the "twitterverse" today.

seriously. just don't do that.

twit-o'sphere

twitterdom

twittertopia

twiiteronia

"tweeps"

The LA Times piece, one of many over the past few weeks, harassed me onto Twitter.

good work internet commenter

lol all my friends are unfollowing my ex on twitter

Both Gradski and Passantino are now on Twitter - proof that it has indeed jumped the shark.

would follow buttez tweets

u can if u think u can

Actually, I should set up a separate Butteztwitter. It would work in the format.

ok, so, no one seems to know this. if you reply to someone who isn't following you, and your own twitter is locked, can they still see that reply?

yeah was wondering too. they probably do. otherwise aplusk isn't getting my messages. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP hahahah

If you reply to someone who isn't following you = they don't see it unless the click on the Replies link.

I quite like twitter.

Fake Christopher Walken is pretty fun

^ Yes, this is brilliant.

If you reply to someone who isn't following you = they don't see it unless the click on the Replies link

If they're using TweetDeck they see it. At least, I do: I've had a couple of replies from people who've seen stuff on the public feed or via a search, and they've shown up in TD.

yeah, but if your twitter is locked?

OMG...

Just downloaded TweetDeck....some dude has been spreading my Smurf joke!

"What is a smurf's least favourite email service? Gargamail"

yeah, but if your twitter is locked?

Dunno! Never locked mine. I'd be surprised if it made any difference ...

... but if your updates are protected, why would someone you're not following reply to you anyway? That'd be weird.

Actually, Lex, hang on: I don't follow you, do I? (Which is an oversight on my part: a Lex Twitterfeed would be good). So let's test this out. Send me a reply to @weesimon and I'll see if I can see it. (NB: post here when you've done it! Oh, and I'm going out soon, so this isn't going to work so well if you're not about.)

but if your updates are protected, why would someone you're not following reply to you anyway? That'd be weird

Also, yes, this isn't the point: not sure why I posted this.

will do this!

& indeed have done it

bated breath

No sign of it :(

Guess that's your answer, then. Bit crap, that.

ah well. as expected i guess. might have to unlock, hmm

I'm surprised, actually. I thought it'd work.

Incidentally, I've just this second sent you a follow request :)

... and your reply's now come through. So that's our answer, then.

POWER FORCE TWITTER BLACK BELT?

Best tweet ever twatted:

wat button wins australia gp oh klik brits lose hour n wake up bukin kote wether sat dun she aint good now ho puk out to town troxy pete o

Twitter seems like a silly fad to me. But I am a sour-dispositioned old fogey who doesn't even carry a cell phone, so my thoughts on it are not relevant.

i finally gave up my mode of denial and am now following dina lohan. lollicious beyond belief. that woman is on a whole other planet

It's a fake account.

who gives a shit, it's awesome.

Paul Pierce is following me on Twitter. Weird.

A small hungry-looking dog has been following me, but that's only because of the bologna in my back pocket. Maybe Paul Pierce is attracted for a similar reason. But that's just a guess.

It must be the prosciutto I had at lunch.

okay here's what bugs me, maybe it's easily fixable, but certain accounts i would like to follow are 75% replies to other comments, and since i don't see the original comment there's absolutely no context and it's totally unintelligible.

just to clarify, that shows me my friend's replies to other people. i want to be able to see what the other people said originally.

does anyone know why all my twitters from Jan 1 to yesterday were erased?

it is because you lied when you were seventeen

It is because @ev is in a board meeting (about 2 hours ago from txt)
