Facebook is nice, you can't help but 'like' it. Youtube is great because you can see it ALL. Google is brilliant because you can know EVERYTHING.
Twitter fucking rocks!
Here is my epiphany about Twitter:
Twitter is the new CB radio.
1971: Breaker19, this is Papa Smurf! You around Foxy Lady?
2011: @papasmurf @foxylady OMFG! Hope I get 2cu! LOL!
Right? Are you picking up what I'm putting down?
People have handles and use jargon and there's always something happening somewhere. I know that's the most obvious and simple analogy. But here's the big one: Hashtags are the new convoy. #EverybodyGetOnBoard
BOOM!
Twitter is a constant feed of politics, news, celebs, sports, whatever your interest. But not only do you have this avalanche of information and links, you also have access to people. Anyone. Your best friend, your clients and peers, the famous. It's an ENORMOUS public forum.
That said, I recently learned I could follow porn stars. (Follow, not stalk.) Porn is ALWAYS ahead of everyone when it comes to technology. The thing about following porn stars on Twitter is that it's fun, funny, and FASCINATING!

I did double vag for the first time this.morning @OMGitsJessieLee I thought of you the whole time !!!!!
Sure, there are xxx twitbots that will start to follow you, but you can block them. It's spam. C'est la net, non?
Yesterday morning I saw that Jenna Jameson (@jennajameson) had tweeted she didn't care for the True Blood finale. Well, I also didn't care for the finale and had just posted that on my blog. So I copied the url, hit reply on her tweet, and sent it off.
Yesterday I think had five hits - all of them mine. But this morning I saw there were more than a thousand. And that was pretty cool.
:-)
That's it. That's all I got.
Twitter rocks!
Well done, Biz & Jack!
PS. Thanks for the RT, Jenna!
