Dam. Twitter is taking ages to load. They need to pick up some better servers.

Seems to be fine for me.

You should try using a Twitter client, they're far less annoying than the web interface, and you don't have to constantly refresh. DestroyTwitter is pretty good.

No, I don't like the sound of a public diary.

I like Twhirl and TweetDeck for clients.

I use DestroyTwitter when playing TS2 as it's not as memory-hungry as the others I've tried - but Twhirl and TweetDeck are my personal favourites.

It's not a public diary at all. You're just typing your current thoughts, rather than what you've done that day.

Twitter..i still don't know fully what it is AND how you find your fav people to follow them around!!

If i can use it from my phone just maybe i'll consider it...thought it does sound FUN reading what people you can not even remotely have contact with in real life are doing!!!

A few days ago, there was a bit of excitement 'cause someone found a Michael Palin profile. But it turned out to be fake. He was very apologetic though

There are loads of fakes on twitter. Sometimes there better than the actual thing.

It annoys me with that. When I type in a celebrity I have to find out if it's the real one.

Er, Twitpic is a useful one. You can upload photos and it'll be published in your Twitter feed.
