What do people Twitter about and why do others care? I don't get the whole Twitter fad. Who cares about the minuscule details of a random person's life? Why do people care so much on Twitter, yet no one cares about anyone in their own neighborhoods and communities anymore. Everyone just walks around with their noses in their iphones and don't even bother to look up and say "hi" to people they know.

Lol I totally agree with you. I don't do the Twitter thing, totally pointless.

I went to a restaurant a couple of nights ago, and I think I counted five-eight people checking their Facebook while on a date? I mean that is just ridiculous, before long we are going to be doing everything from a virtual world. Never leaving our homes again, no more human contact. <-Little extreme but sometimes that feels like where we are going...

I think the point is that you follow people who have something interesting to say.

Yep, thats the point. I follow a few comedians because they often say funny things.

There are a couple people I follow who post updates to things im interested in. IE: an app I use on my phone I follow the developer because he posts status updates a couple times a day.

I have followed a few people who tweet like 40 times a day about "im at mcdonalds" "just saw a bicycle, man I love bicycles" I unfollow them as soon as they begin to annoy me which is quite quick.

I usually dont have anything interesting to say so I dont update my twitter or facebook. I usually just use facebook for photo's and to chat with people. I dont usually use it in public, but a couple of my friends do, its pretty annoying.
