Well, maybe it’s a little harsh to call Twitter stupid. At the very least it is silly, borderline idiotic. It’s a strange hybrid of a forum and a blog, but nobody is saying anything useful or meaningful. It’s the world’s largest intellectual toilet bowl. Comparing to other social media sites, it’s hard to find a single redeeming quality for Twitter. I have a personal Twitter account, yes, and I’ve even posted once on it. But I felt dirty afterwards. Also I found that for some reason I had over 20 “followers” until I culled them, but they were mostly porn sites. To try and drive traffic to my other projects, I’ve got other twitter accounts but I’m getting a close to 0.0% ROI for my effort on those.  Does it work for anyone? I can’t find any data supporting this.

All I imagine Twitter to be (if you’re not a celebrity, product or service) is full of young, insecure, immature noobs who take pleasure in how many “followers” they have and waiting for some shred of acknowledgement from other twitterers.

Mind you, I’ve blogged every day for three weeks now and haven’t said anything useful or meaningful yet. So maybe it’s not just Twitter, but the whole Internet is stupid.
