Twitter – an unecessary tool?

Jump to Comments

Twitter is the worst tool which has got publicity from people who have nothing better to do! I am tired of hearing about “Twitter” – especially on CNN. I get off from work around 3:45pm and while driving home I listen to CNN Radio on Sirius-XM. I tune the radio to catch Wolf Blitzer but there is still 15 minutes for the show to kick in. So I have to listen to the CNN host by the name of Rick Sanchez – he talks about twitter every time and it is frustrating. It seems his whole show is based on twitter!

Twitter has a funny sounding name but so it is boring, frustrating and an unnecessary tool.

Andy Rooney radio and television writer sums it up nicely “Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do don’t need to be done”. Twitter is exactly that – this tool doesn’t enhance our life in any way; offers no entertainment – we can live without it. It is not Facebook, Myspace or Youtube. It is just a twitter…a blip on the technology radar.

The main concept of twitter is posting about what are you doing at the present moment?

Seriously, do you really want to know what is happening in my life – every hour, every minute and every second? I don’t think you would be interested in knowing what I had for breakfast or are you really interested in knowing what I do in the bathroom? Do you? :)
