I can't help but tell you -- I hate Twitter.

It's just... useless. For me.

I already have a blog, which allows me to publish content in more than 140
characters.

What is the allure? Please, tell me.

If you want to "follow" me, good luck. Or rather, try my RSS feed.

Are people so absorbed in themselves that they really want to let everyone
in the world know what they are doing at any given moment? Isn't that
disturbing, in and of itself?

If you already have a blog, and Twitter, please don't tell me [1] in your
blog's RSS feed what you're Twittering about. It smacks of self-absorption
and self-promotion.

Yikes. Scary.

Please. Stop it.

I'm not "following you" anyway.

Your loss.

        Gadi.
