Anything the lying, agenda-pushing, MSM propmotes is something I am skeptical of if not outright against -- no matter what it is. They have proven they are not looking out for your best interests, American public -- otherwise, they wouldn't be telling such outrageous lies to you day after day.
"The Twitter Book (about $20, from O'Reilly Media, June 2009) shows you how to find "cool" people to follow (and holds up Shaquille O'Neil as an example).
Pfffft!
"Shaq here. I just took a king-sized shit."
The book also teaches you to use Twitter searches to find folks who might be interested in whatever you are selling. In other words, the book is devoted almost entirely to finding leads and making sales, 140 characters at a time.
Yeah, it's ABOUT BUSINESS -- not communications or truth!
If you have not yet figured it out, I hate Twitter. Twitter is a social-networking doodad that shouts, with sickening regularity, "Hey! Check this out!" There are few deep discussions taking place here....
That's another reason I won't be tweeting any time soon.
