The Twouble with Twitter and Tweeting :-)

Two humor posts in one day? Sure why not! This one takes a satirical look at the Twitter phenomena that's sweeping the world by storm. I know Twitter users won't be offended by this and everybody else will get a good laugh :-)

It's pretty crazy. We all know how powerful our addiction to BlackBerry smartphones are and it seems Twitter has that same sort of grasp over its users too. The video's Twitter addict is an Ahh Frak phone user, but we all know it's really the BlackBerry Addict + Twitter Addict = Twouble!

Kevin, this video is true (mostly). Especially with those people outside of twitter. But once they get sucked in...oh man. :) Hope Team CrackBerry is doing awesome!

Being fairly new to Tweeting, I would say the video is spot on.

Sad, but true.

I highly recommend TwitterBerry, seeing as it is fast, clean, light, nice-looking, and feature-full. Nothing more. Nothing less. There are better ways to TwitPic if you absolutely must.

Either way, my vote is for the TwitterBerry-faithful. Follow me on a CrackBerry voyage @jricciardi!

Great vid. That guy ripping everyone sounded like an echo of me. The best part is at the end because you know no matter how much you try to talk reason into these people they still go running back to their delusional lives. SPOT ON VID!!!!

OH man, that was quality work right there lol.

I just don't get what the whole thing with social networking is?
I guess I do now lol... still doesn't appeal to me tho.

I have friends who update their stuff with every little thing they do.
So you're going to such and such place and then going to do this and that...... and I care because? lol
..and ppl wonder why they have stalkers lol

Pretty funny tho XD

At the risk of starting a war, the video kind of sums it up for me - I Don't Get It. I've been on Twitter for several weeks and frankly have failed to see the attraction. I could care less that someone I vaguely know is walking their dog this afternoon. And who really cares that I'm bringing in a load of firewood?

That was the best part!!! lol! I'm on twitter but I use it for giving and receiving technical advice or finding new blogs to read. But I don't care about someone's broken relationship or the hangover from last night. Vid was sooo funny and hit the nail on the head. :)

I guess I'd have to try it to understand. I see it more and more everyday. TV personalities are so excited that they just got tweeted or whatever its called. Did this video just call them all Twits? The video is is good. Pretty Funny!

So far most of the 33 comments are in support of the "what a waste of time" crowd. Were are all the folks who have been posting to the forums (mainly the 3rd Party Apps forum) about their love affair with Twitter, TwitterBerry, TinyTwitter, SocialScope, etc.? Where is their twitterpated passion when you need it?

  • Reply

rmstudio Mar 25, 2009 at 7:15 pm

Pretty much the same thing as a the "Baptist Church" scam thats been running for how many years? LoL. The same methods of control and the same thing like the little twitty bird says. Dont do it choose your next words carefully. Because if you do not it will bring down the house of cards.. just like the church scam.. LoL. and that secret is people thinking on their own and speaking up..

Church oldest running scam in history...

Thanks for the Credit on this video Crackberry...

I use twitter to make quick Austin Real Estate updates and like Tiny Twitter better than Twitter Berry. I had some trouble downloading Tiny Twitter early on but had no issues recently. Give it a try.
