We were considering this too. I can see it being a quick and easy way to let people know about shows rather than updating the websites and facebook groups. Also more of a guarantee that people will read it.

Check the date I started this thread and recognize just how far ahead of the curve I was, bitches.

Really? That's fucking pitiful. I still stand by this being useful for concerts and/or events.

To me, it's a slightly more convenient RSS feed and not much more.

I get invites all the time and refuse to do it. I have a shitty, obsolete cell phone and fucking hate text messaging. If I am sitting at my computer why would I tweet when I can waste an hour on facebook doing the same quizzes Fuck You Dave and Boner Pills are doing.

I should be getting a free signed book out of it, so that's worth what I've put into it.

Just joined. You can blame Whiney's rant at the 140 conference (which I, for the record, liked quite a bit). Tried to add as many of you as poss, but shit takes a while to update.

I understand it in terms of following news, etc (ie how it's helped in Iran) but it's not for me. I am too impulsive and will spend my life recording and talking about events without actually living them. I'd rather stay focused in the present.

plus I got bored.

wrong. why would marketers have a twitter conference then? social marketers/brands, artists, etc. take twitter a lot more seriously than you think.

Because they don't know how to reach their micro-niches without it?

I don't think marketers having a conference about something is all it takes to make it long-term.

Having said that, I don't know if I agree with "2 years."

I've created a list in Twitter called "Obner" that currently has 45 of us on it - check it out under @lukewarmtallboy and let me know if I'm missing anyone...

In terms of deriving the greatest benefit to humanity with the least effort made then unplugging Twitter would probably be the way to go.
