4. And yet His blog is still sitting there -- with the lie unchallenged
http://blogs.abcnews.com/george/2010/01/rudy-giuliani-no-domestic-attacks-under-bush-one-under-obama.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Jakwe needs to have a talk with his co-worker, not just the twitterverse. I am so pissed at this.

The new media tools require a really short learning curve but following the news is SO much more easy and efficient once you do. :)

8. True. You got me.
And the "moronic code" in the OP above represents all the "news" that can be found in the "Twitterverse" (offered with tongue-in-cheek).

Luddite much?

14. Get back to me when reading 10k blips of this crap a day
changes anything.
It's just yap yap yap, what the hell do you get from that?
And if you read something 10 minutes before I do, does that change anything?
No, it doesn't.
I don't feel the need to be plugged in to what these fucks are talking about, it is the DNA thing, as in 'does not apply' to anything going on in my life.
Or most lives.

YMMV.

11. I think you're both wrong. Twitter was revolutionary in terms of how people
communicate, not only mundane shit but news and real-time events. People pay Twitter now for their metric data. There's a lot more that goes on with Twitter than people understand.

12. Actually... I was only joking.
Should have included this --> :sarcasm:

I'm big into twitter and love the opportunities it provides - for news/information collecting/sharing and global conversation.
