Poll: Do You Use Twitter?

[mikecoulter]

I have a Twitter account bot don't really use it. Its just the Facebook status update without the rest of the features.

I've set it up to my Escapist profile.

 

[Kollega]

As Yahtzee wisely put it,"Twitter is balls".

 

[JediMB]

Yes, but I rarely use it due to not having anything worth saying most of the time.

I basically got the account so I could send a message to another Twitter-user.

 

[The Infamous Scamola]

Yes, yes I do. It's nice to talk to the peeps of the 'scapist outside of the 'scapist.

 

[Cpt_Oblivious]

I do. I follow major gaming companies as well as Escapist forumers and staff.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

Aren't are votes already done anonymously?

I prefer not to use it as around a good 80% of it is just random chatter. And I refuse to give into the normal popular websites of the 21st century (Which are Myspace,Twitter and Facebook)

 

[razer17]

I do, I use it to speak to some of the escapists. And my tweeting is much decreased these days, i use SKype more now to talk to 'Scapists

 

[Cowabungaa]

Not really, never saw the point. If a major gaming company says something interesting on Twitter, it'll pop up at the News forum here anyway. And my life is too dull to share with random people anyway.

 

[Lieju]

I don't even use facebook.

 

[megapenguinx]

Yep I use twitter. But I don't use it as intended, I use it more as a universal chat application. I never really felt the need to say what I was doing to everyone every second of my life.

 

[Mookie_Magnus]

I do quite frequently... I use it as a chat-device. I actually just finished a rather long conversation with megapenguinx. But you can't see... I lock my Twitter, so that only people I allow can see my Tweets.

 

[GrandAm]

No I don't

Reasons:
1. Don't Care
2. Don't Care
3. Have a life
4. Don't Care
5. My work doesn't allow it
6. Don't Care
7. Waiting for Star Trek Holodecks, twitter is just a transitive technology
8. Really F*****g don't care

 

[War Penguin]

No. Sorry, but I have no clue why it's a big deal to some people.

 

[Kamikazi1231]

Nah no need to have it. I only find Facebook useful to keep in touch with a few friends over seas. Twitter would just seem like a secondary way to do that but with less content.

 

[AdmiralMemo]

The main reason I use Twitter is due to my forgetful nature. Basically, during the day, I used to either write stuff down or try to remember it and compile it into a blog post later, typically ending up forgetting details and such. Now, I just tweet stuff when I can, right after it happens, and let LoudTwitter make the posts for me later.

Text messaging and Ping.FM help with this tremendously.

 

[TriGGeR_HaPPy]

No, but I plan on joining at some point to follow a few friends and companies/actors I'm interested in...
