I have an account but have never used it...never used it one time. What is the appeal for you Rhu? I don't really understand what twitter is to be honest...

the appeal is:
(1) escape. I have a company blackberry with twitter. it's CRACK. and it's everywhere I go.
(2) immediacy. I can read what Joe Hill is thinking about RIGHT NOW. it's fairly intimate. (anyone read Joe HIll? go read/download HEART SHAPED BOX now).
(3) new art. Micheal Ian Black is turning twitter on it's head. funny and immediate. cracks me up every day. this is new comedy.

I had a Twitter account for three days 2-3 years ago. Personally I hated it. I deleted my account. Even if I did something really huge and had a large fan base, I'd still have a hard time signing up for it again.
On the topic of social networks...
I post stuff on Facebook almost daily. I admit that sometimes I go days before I read what anybody else is doing though. I'm selfish.
If any of you are on Facebook & aren't my friend...you should be. I've always loved this board & all of it's good people with diverse opinions.
Hopefully this is a working link.www.facebook.com/people/Gabriel-Hamrick/1498920620

I really like it to keep current on my favorite bands, it is a necessary thing these days I suppose. |

honestly, it's just too public. at this point in my life, i wear too many hats. Dad, Son, Boss, Project Manager/Geologist, Church Band Leader, Underground Music Freak (my true self!!). I can't have a place where all of those could find me and expect me to be one thing.
besides, i prefer it here. underground.
