Twitter

As an avid user of most social networks I am left perplexed by twitter. I just don't see it's appeal and frankly I think it is the most egotistical and ridiculous social network out there. I mean... it is just there to let people know what you are doing, thinking, etc. And to expect that people actually care that your "off to the gym" or "listening to Kesha in the car" is very I'm-the-center-of-the-world. Is it really necessary to let everyone know what you are doing every minute of the day? Is it really necessary to know what other people are doing every minute of the day? It's just creepy... on both ends.

As for celebrities... even creepier. Fools can't complain about paparazzi anymore cause they tell the world what they are doing all day. Idiots. If you don't want crazy stalker fans or paparazzi chasing you down then don't announce to the world that your "going to the grocery store" or "eating at (blank) restaurant". Let's use our common sense people! And for announcements... concert dates... tv appearances... that's what websites are for.

Our generation has come up with some really great, innovative ideas... however Twitter is definitely not one of them.
