I ued to follow his blog religiously, but I kind of got out of the habit, so I started to follow his updates on Twitter... but he's one of these people who sends tweets constantly, so I don't have his updates set to be texted to me, because my phone would be going off every 5 minutes.

Twitter is good for keeping up on things like bands you're interested in or news sites, and it's kind of a fun way to interact with friends, but for the most part it's become the weird out of control attention-seeking thing used by goofy teens.![]()
You can "follow" other peoples' tweets, and the thing I like is that you can control which updates come to your phone. The rest you only see if you log in online.

The other cool thing you can do is turn off the updates between certain hours, so mine stop at 10pm and start again and 9 am.
If it weren't for the ability to turn them off and to select only certain peoples' messages to come to me via text message I wouldn't have ever bothered.
If it's something you're interested in, just go to the Twitter site and create the account and after that it's easy to get the idea. Even *I* figured it out, so it can't be that hard.![]()
Andrew... good to see you on Twitter!

Um, yeah, whatever. I'm not a stalker and unlike you, I've never twittered anyone asking for information about a celeb. Reading a person's updates (that THEY choose to make public) is not the same as replying to someone who tweets about Steve Perry and asking that person if he's still there, did you talk to him, etc.
I read Kevin Smith's blog or his tweets because he makes them public and because he is entertaining. I've never replied to him and I've never sent messages to anyone asking about him, again, unlike you. And MY twitter profile isn't the one that's been circulated in PM here because of how creepy it is. So don't throw knives like that unless you want them thrown back.

Absolutely WRONG. I replied to Frank's question about using twitter, I stayed on topic and never made ANY reference to you.
You came in and used my reply to call me a stalker and subsequently hijacked Andrew's thread.
