Am about to reach my 1000th tweet , that means must have wasted around 1,40,000 character's of twitter space- may be would have added to some carbon foot print also . No worries , shall plant some trees (virtually on twitter).
I think twitter is gross waste of time , and is seriously affecting my career , personal and professional life - must tell that was about to fall off the treadmill running at a speed of 10km/hr because tried tweeting while running .
Well that's not the only pitfall of being on twitter as there is always a hospital near by to fix you up , should you fall of the treadmill . Real issue is curiosity ? There is nothing more intriguing in life than twitter .
Even after having tweeted 1000 tweets and following 100 people , some questions remain un answered :
- How to resist temptation of tweeting amidst an important meeting , driving , jogging or ****ing etc etc?
- Why some tweets carry only #hashtags and twitter handles and nothing else?
- WTF does FTW means ?
- @jhunjhunwala is so rude still people standup when he "arrives"?
- What the hell is "you follow me , i'll follow you" concept?
- How come @rameshsrivats is so funny yet many other suck?
- Who is @spymaami?
- Once on twitter , how to think beyond 140 characters in daily life?
- How come @sidin 's mediocre tweet is retweeted by 100 people and no one looks at most wittiest of my tweets?
- What's the logic of @toptweets picking tweets , how come my tweet has never been re tweeted?
- Why do some people just keep retweeting left right n centre?
- How come two genuine people @amancool5 and @ashwinsanghi and some 50 other still following me and the rest of the ******** are going crazy about Bieber , Jieber or what ever that ******** is ?
- finally , after all this , WHY THE HELL I @vikaspgoel TWEET?
interesting read..

ReplyDeleteI agree this entire phenomina of social networks is very dangerous if not used properly, I have seen teens getting on Social network & informing more than what they should. later on this become a searchable record for life.
with Facebook facing Privacy isue, we need to be very careful.
