I'm trying to use it since I started an account back like 2 years ago (I checked today and counting today's tweet, I'm up to 5 tweets). Seriously though - what do you tweet about? I feel like I don't like an interesting enough life to actually tweet anything. Do you want to know when I go to the gym? Or what I eat? Or what I'm looking at online? And then there's direct messaging to individual people. And retweeting. And the "@" symbol.
I have to admit, I'm a little overwhelmed by it all.
Enlighten me people (and then follow me on twitter @cbkingery because it's a lot like blogger... makes you feel special when your "follower" list grows - yeah, I have 5 followers to match my 5 tweets).

I lose enough precious time in my day with FB and Blogging. Those two aside, I have banned all other social networking sites. No tweet for me. :)
I don't twit. Blogging is enough for me:) And yes, people twit about everything, what they eat, what they do, every thought that goes through their mind. I think it would be addictive to me.
Sorry...I don't use twitter! It's just one more thing that I really don't have the time for!
I just follow a few people on Twitter, like Conan, Lance, and a few other pro cyclists & triathletes. I have facebook as well. Talk about too many people to keep up with!
I don't do the twitter. When all the celebs were doing it and the entertainment shows would repost their tweets about eating and watching tv, I just thought it was stupid. Like their egos aren't big enough. For regular people, it seems like their are enough other ways for us to keep up with eachother!
i like it, i want to use it more effectively, but it's so darn hard. Every time I log in there are literally hundreds of new tweets...
Like you I have a twitter account but I rarely use it. I got the account so I could "follow" our work account and give us more followers.
I will go add you to my twitter list!
I used to tweet (mostly followed politics & work related stuff). Since I've been unemployed... lost interest. :) FB & blogging are enough!
I tweet, just ramblings, I do use it to find out about impromtu rides and events from the people I ride with. Sometimes, there are friendly trash talking wars between athletes, those are entertaining if your sitting at home bored. If you want some Ohio tweeters, let me know and I will forward them to you
I tweet. I use the account for my business mostly. I see other bloggers out there and have twittervastions with them.
It is overwhelming and a lot of times I don't open it until I have an announcement to make and then leave it open.
@MMNorthDallas
Same here as what a lot of people have said- between FB and blogging, I just don't have time for it.
I occasionally drop in on Sh*t My Dad Says twitter page, because I find it HILARIOUS. (http://twitter.com/shitmydadsays)
I'm a social media manager so Twitter is a huge part of my job. I'll admit, when I started using it last year, I didn't like it, but now I'm hooked. Once you start to follow more people and businesses, it becomes a tremendous news resource and great way to meet like minded folks. It really is "microblogging" :) Check out Mashable.com for some good "Getting Started with Twitter" articles :) Good luck! (and I'm Copy_Chic on Twitter)
I don't use twitter, I don't seem to have the time to follow all the blogs I love and face book so I don't even try. Just don't stop blogging!
I don't use it and I simply have NO idea what it is I am so behind on the times. Teach me once you learn:)
no twats for me! both FB and twitter are blocked at work, and i just dont have the time or energy to do either one when i get home!
loooove twitter...I don't have that many followers but I tweet about running/biking new purchases, beers, wines, food, blog, my husband's band, music, questions. I have it hooked up to facebook so that is my status.
I am @bigonion75 if you want to look me up, I will follow u and make 6 :)
I LOVE Twitter!! I definitely waste a lot of time on it :) I tweet about random stuff: workouts, running/tri related questions; random stuff I come across... It's a lot of fun! I'm @Train_Happy
eh, I looked at it and I feel the same way. Too overwhelming for me!!
I love that you buy two jars...especially since the crunchy is for you:) I just hide my jar from Billy, maybe I should just buy him his own. Hope you are having a great weekend.
I tweet maybe once a day, usually giveaways that are going on. I mostly like to see what people like Chelsea Handler are up to.
