I'll just come right out and say that I don't like Twitter. I don't mind it, and I check it sometimes when I feel like reading a text wall or I'm waiting for a bus. But I just plain and simple don't like it. I started an account on Twitter to follow Notch and keep up to date with the latest development news on his game, Minecraft.
Much time has passed and Notch is no longer in charge of development on the game, but remains the most worthwhile person in my Twitter feed. I rarely ever make tweets myself and just stick to following people I'm interested in, such as Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson. I also follow some of the guys from roosterteeth.com, but I'm not missing much by not reading their tweets. Like my brother, they just say stuff to the public without filtering their thoughts first.
On their podcast they had a moderately amusing discussion on how there's an unspoken follower:tweet ratio, an if you tweet more often and have almost no followers, you're automatically labeled an asshole who just wants attention. Like all those spoiled girls you'll see, complaining about how hard their life is because they didn't get the right color iPhone from their parents. Disgusting examples of humanity. So I seldom enter the Twitterverse, as there is nothing there for me anymore.
