In which she makes herself unpopular

Have I mentioned that I loathe Twitter?

It's almost as bad as the "status" thing on Facebook, except that it might possibly be worse, as you're supposed to update it all the &$#% time!

I cannot imagine anything more hateful to me, than to constantly have to tell people whatever random thing I'm doing precisely at this moment.

Maybe I'm just grumpy.

I'd rather get one thoughtful post every few days from a friend, rather than have a bunch of unrelated sentences and fragments dumped on me at the end of the day.

I was going to say that I'm no fan of Twitter, but what I mean is that I'm no fan of twits using it. It's a really neat tool if it's treated as more than a place for ego updates.

Here's a couple of things that have come through my feed today (one of them is an update of my own):
