As much as I am convinced Twitter is retarded:

ITT Discordian's who are thoroughly against social networking of this style go over to the dark side.

I am against all styles but I have gone to the dark side on all, being a hypocrite is fun!

[Cain]

OK, which one of you is masquerading as the Jewish Internet Defence Force?

Because I have a hard time believing they are interested in reading me and Enki discussing caffeine poisoning.

HAHA @cain

I got Ciromarketing Following me now.

The spamming technique these days seems to be this: spam companies will create accounts of arguably real people who consider themselves marketing geeks, who will follow people who fall into a certain grouping in terms of followed-to-following ratios, and then if they get followed in return they will start spamming via direct message.

This doesn't particularly matter to me, since I typically use twitter for an input source for more or less unpredictable and diverse data and as a way of allowing my bots to annoy facebook users.

Your words interest me. I wish to subscribe to your magazine.

I haven't been able to deal with this yet.  Work is sucking ass.  Normally I'd be on it.  Ugh.  Fuck this day.

[Jenne]

Motherfucking Twitter refused my account!  FUCKERS!  I tried to sign up from my phone.    So I will try again tomorrow during work from my PC

@drjon (yes, our drjon) has crafted a profile lookup bookmarklette: http://revdrjon.blogspot.com/2009/04/another-bloody-twitter-bookmarklet-user.html

Drag and drop it onto your bookmark toolbar (Firefox). Then highlight a twitter username (without the @) and hit the button. You'll be taken to their profile page.

Damn, I need to get my Twitter acct setup.

Oh, god damn it: http://www.twitter.com/SafariRalph

Why won't they show the picture I uploaded?

[Jenne]

Ok, I'm @JayGurl73

I'm not going to use this for "really real" purposes, just this gasm, methinks.

Hm, interesting what their TOS are.  Basically, if enough people block you or complain about you, you're toast.

Ok, ETA: this Twitter thing SUCKS ASS.  They need larger bandwidth or something.  Everytime I move in and out of the damned site, it says it's OVER CAPACITY.  Ugh.  Fail.
