I consider myself a tech savvy guy.  I like gadgets, I read a tech news blog daily, and I’m always into looking for the new Internets tech coming out.  That being said, I just don’t get the whole Twitter thing.

From the talk around town Twitter is the bee’s knees, but I just don’t understand its appeal.  You get 140 characters to update people one what you’re doing.  What can you put in 140 characters?  Not a whole lot.  So I’m wondering what kind of updates you’re supposed to put on there.  Am I supposed to keep everyone up to speed on what TV show I’m watching or what I’m eating at each meal?  I just don’t think things like that are all that interesting.

Maybe my life just isn’t interesting enough for a Twitter account.  And for that matter, I don’t think I want people all up in my business like that.  Hell, I have a hard time remembering to update my status on my Facebook account.  Maybe someone can enlighten me on what its all about.  TJ, if you read this, I’m looking at you because you’re the only one I know with a Twitter account.
