Be annoyed with me. Or don’t. Whatever.
- I’m tired of the amount of energy it takes to get value out of it.
- Hash tags are overused. Not everything can go viral.
- I’ve met some good people, but it’s NOT like a cocktail party, where I’d likely want to talk to about 50% of the people there (if I’m at the right party)… it’s hard to find the right party on Twitter.
- Most of the people I’ve followed, I’ve unfollowed because they are boring, offensive, or just plain irritating.
- Twitter SPAM sucks worse than regular SPAM, because when I get the email that someone is following me, I have to click to see what they are all about.
- Not everyone can be a Guru. To those of you who are self-proclaimed Social Media Gurus: WTF? Who isn’t one these days? Want to talk to someone who actually knows what the hell they’re talking about? Follow @embolden.
- As Penelope Trunk notes in a recent blog post: Self-centered people are more likely to waste your time. Those who claim that it’s not about them… the self-proclaimed super-users of the Twitter world… they just want you to read their blog posts. Their Tweets are self-indulgent and annoying.
- The more time I spend meeting people on Twitter, the less time I spend outside. Or reading. Or at the gym. Or walking George. It’s more of a time suck than this blog and Facebook combined, because it’s a pain in the ass to get it to a place that there is any ROI.
- Follow me! Follow me! Follow me!… Stop it! Don’t follow me just so I will follow you!
- I do care what you had for lunch today, I really do. No really, I do. But only if I know you and it was AWESOME. Otherwise, could you please shut up about it?
