I think it started out as just a way for family and friends to keep in touch with what each other were doing each day. The it somehow became popular.
I see it as a kind of challenge. What can we say within 140 words without being boring or mundane, and without resorting to txt spk
btw didn't Roald Dahl write a book called The Twits? Maybe it's all his fault.

it's the most over-rated of the "new media"..boring and infuriating.

Twitter has one or two entertaining comments, like this quote regarding Children in Need - "A good cause hidden beneath crass self promotion."
I think that sums up the event quite nicely.

I love forums - I love networking sites.
I find TWITTER is totally rubbish. It is basically a load of rubbish. I cant see anything interesting has ever been said. It is like a short text message publicly displayed.....there is no point to that unless someone has something to advertise.
It is therefore in my opinion a total SCAM.
Avoid twitter at all costs. It is for Tw*ts as a famous politician once joked.
