i dont get twitter

what is the appeal over other social network sites

for example facebook

Twitter isn't social networking from the line of profile-based sites such as Friendster, Myspace, or Facebook. It's microblogging, with the ability to be referential to other Twitterers. It was adopted by Facebook in the form of statuses, but Twitter can be used for social media, but provides more voyeurism on a day-to-day level.

Also, motherfucking SHAQ is on Twitter.

cool

facebook wall and facebook status in a single, less convenient package

You can hate all you want, but honestly since I quit facebook, I haven't had any need for it's main services. Twitter suits me fine.

Geotagging, global statistics and tweet groups depending on whatever is going on in the world currently, makes it more consumable than Facebook statuses.

I know most people don't see the appeal, but I just use mine combined with the Twitbin add on for firefox to get newsfeeds directly onto my browser...a lot of ppl will argue that you can just use rss feeds and such, but this feel cleaner and you have the added benefit of the social networking abilities in one package (although, yes I know they are limited compared to facebook and such).

yea thats pretty fuckin hilarious.

I wish there was some sort of twitter function where you can add notes to people yur following so you remember who they are.

also i wis htehre was a twitter app that lets you group the people you're following into categories (i may have heard there actually is an iphone app that does this... confirm?)

Tweetdeck is a desktop app that lets you create groups, etc. Kind of a memory hog but I don't have it on when I'm sleeping.
