I've said before said before that I find Twitter ridiculous.
But as shown by three posts in TWO DAYS (not to mention previous content about it), Scoble apparently loves Twitter. So, I've been forced to re-think it.
I still don't get it.
Is it really uesful - or even interesting - for "the world" to know that you missed your bus? Or that you're thinking about which of Barker's Beauties from The Price Is Right is your all-time favorite? Wait, don't bother answering. I'll take this one...uh, NO!
With even the most ardent Web 2.0-ers feeling like there's already too much to keep up with, why on earth would somebody take the time to post incremental updates about their daily minutiae, let alone waste time reading about somebody else's.
If your missed bus means you'll be late for a meeting with me, give me a buzz. If you want to debate game show "co-hosts," let's do it over a beer.
Twitter is a classic example of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should."
