Am I lame for not "getting" this site?  Why is it fun?  What is the appeal?

I found Lara there btw. And we both seem to have exactly one update, so I guess you didn't glom onto it right away either. ;) 

how funny.  I think I probably signed up for this a long time ago but then got an email saying you were following me... yikes I gotta watch my back!! LMAO j/k

I don't understand a lot of these sites so I end up signing up and then getting totally baffled as to how to incorporate them into my life. 

Anyone have the answers on what the draw is?

didn't mean to stalk you!  there was an option to search my gmail address book and you came up is all.

lol!  Internet stalker  :lol:  I totally didn't mind at all I thought it was pretty funny.  Hopefully we'll have that option when our kids get a little older.  I want DD to think I'm following her everywhere...  :D

I had that same problem with one of them, I think it was facebook and when I thought it was just searching for people I knew it actually sent them all a message, arg.  lol

I figured out how to send updates from my phone, but I still don't see the fascination.  Who out there cares what I'm doing at any given moment?

LOL! That is why I haven't even tried it out, despite all of the hype. My updates would likely be like... bought canned tomatoes buy-one-get-one free... got home from work to find decapitated chipmunk left as gift from murderous cat...  broke up 6 arguments amongst the boys... and anyone who read them would likely be bored to death!

Though, I like Lara's idea about using it as a parental advantage. I may just have to go figure the whole twitter thing out, just for that aspect!

 :rotf: Literally a few minutes ago, before I logged into DT, I just figured out how to use text msg with my twitter.  I even put my twitter summary on my own website.

BF and I share a car, and sometimes BFF can give me a ride, so now instead of call/text/email to each one, I can show them how to follow me on twitter and then I can keep them posted (did I catch my bus, do I need a ride) no matter where I am -  :yipee: - with only one message and not several.

I gave it a 2nd look after reading a blog for work (Stephen's Lighthouse) where there's a link to a good youtube video called "twitter in plain english".  Neat little summary about why you'd want to use it.
