TwitterChat
I use Twitter, not a whole lot like Scoble or Calacanis, but enough. What is it though with people that over use the @ reply feature to the point that Twitter is no longer a microblogging tool for them…it’s a chat channel? I see it every day, and damn is it annoying. My friends feed is just littered with tons of meaningless @ replies to me because I’m not following everyone that is being @ replied to.
somedude @sillygirl I know what you mean.
slickerguy I was meaning to get with you @myfriend, but never got a chance.
hotone @wcfriend @ecfriend @lookatme @uwantme What?
Talk about useless noise. People, it’s a micro BLOGGING service, not an instant messenger chat program. Get on IRC or AIM if you want a chat experience. Or, if you decide to use @ replies, which I do from time to time myself…stop the back-n-forth chatting methodology, and learn become friends with moderation. Now go tweet something useful, not more “tweetguru @friend2me Did you really?”
