If you look at the pages of "successful" Twitter users (i.e. those with large followings, let's say 500+) you can easily see that most of these people seem to be very active on Twitter. They spend large amounts of their time on the site, posting Tweets and no doubt responding to and reading tweets. It's like those people on public forums, you know, the ones who have amassed thousands of posts on a single site. The sort of effort which takes monumental time and effort.
It makes you question the value of the service, because if in order to become successful at Twitter I have to become addicted and spend so much of my time online, am I really ahead? I don't think so. Twitter, FB and other social sites, with their emphasis on people re-posting news/articles, have created a group of people who mainly like to be in the spotlight. This is what it's all about, what its always been about -- look at me, check me out, I am so smart/cool, etc. Twitter especially, breeds addicts who are specialists at being addicts ("social media experts"). It's so sad.

Social websites like orkut,face book,twitter etc all crap just waiting people time with no benefits on final analysis
People who are using these kind of sites are heavy addicts spending hours in front of computer,mobiles etc without caring about time,energy etc
Twitter is heavily promoted by celebrities & other government people who are making people idiots rather than helping to get out of addiction.
Sites like http://www.istwittercrap.com/ is very useful to wake addicts from their twitter world.

You should consider setting a 140 character limit to these comments.

Twitter is for twits ! What a waste of time and resources. I agree with Richard it is full of spammers, tossers and internet marketers (maybe shit hoarders and drag strip officials as well). The pathetic lonley people looking for something more in their life should get off their fat arses and get out more, go have a REAL conversation with a REAL person face to face !

Twitter is the most shitty, boring and overated crap the internet has offered in recent years. It's success doesnt surprise me at all, though, since twitter is targeted for unsociable, idiotic and lifeless losers, that we all know they're always overflowing

I think that twitter is awful. I think its facebook with all the good stuff removed. Nobody cares what you are doing. It is just turning more people into unsociable idiots.

I think I have been getting more traffic since I joined Twitter. I don't have a whole lot of follower yet. I think the mian reason some say that Twitter is a whole lot of crap is they don't know how to use it. I have been geting all the information on how to setup and use Twitter and Face Book.
