I really really don’t like Facebook. I don’t like how difficult it is to control privacy. I don’t like all the stupid application.

I like MySpace more. It’s the original. It’s not so annoying. I still don’t really use it though. It’s just another medium to advertise me.

I managed to ignore Twitter for a long time. Years. I didn’t get it. I still don’t get how people get quite so excited about it but I do actually get it now. And I Twitter often. Once or twice a day. It does appeal to me. But different people use it for different reasons. Me? I just use it to post random thoughts that would have otherwise been lost forever. If people find them interesting then great but I don’t care. I don’t care how many people follow me. I’m not big into following other people. I don’t like people that much. I have an interest in SEO so I follow a few SEO gurus and of course, Stephen Fry.

Some people get all upset and angry because someone they are following hasn’t returned the interest. Please. Get over yourselves.

I do also  like Twitter as a method of basic communication. It appeals to my preferred method of speaking to people. A quick drive-by style shout at people. It’s easy, I can do so from my G1 or from my desk. For me it’s almost sociable.

Yeah, I like Twitter.
