Twitter Catastrophy

twitter tweet tweeting twittering, whatever you would like to call it. I, however, hated this assignment. I started 'tweeting' and it was going okay. I had followed multiple people and multiple were following me. Although even with putting my "twitter" on private, I still feel like facebook is more secure; especially by the "adding" of "friends" and its not so easy to just follow or as I call it "stalk" someone. I mean a lot of information is on these websites and realllyy super smart people have no problem hacking into a profile to find out all your information and your friends information if you have no problem posting things especially if you feel like its "safe and secure." Twitter, for me, did not work. My profile worked for the first 4 days. Then just froze, wouldn't let me post anything, or respond, or it just wouldn't load the whole page. I tried several times and different things to fix this problem but it didn't work for me. But this assignment is done now, thank goodness. I can understand how twitter would be beneficial for some people and in advertising but it also takes a lot of time to do so. To be caught up with everyone you would have to be on it quite a bit. Comparing twitter to facebook they do have a lot in common. Facebook is more expanded though, it also gives you more to do than just "update status." I love you all and this has been a great class and getting to know you guys but....I'm sorry I don't want to know EVERYTHING you guys are doing at EVERY second. Facebook seems to be more broad rather than twitter. I can understand a lot of people continuing to use twitter but I won't...especially since I would have to make a new one and that just seems like more work when I can just talk to most my friends on facebook. :)
