    Who's on Twitter?

    I got bored last week and created a Twitter account over a lunch hour. And it has been interesting. I post my reviews to blogcritics and there is a retweet link at the top of each one (a retweet for blogcritics that is). I usually get about two retweets. I tweeted a link to my Alice in Wonderland review and it already has 32 retweets. (Maybe it's just because the movie is uber-popular right now.) Plus I used bit.ly to create a short URL and got the added bonus of all kinds of neat stats on who has been clicking the link. It's been clicked 39 times including by somebody in Barbados.

    Anyway, err, why did I create this thread? Oh yeah. Please post a link to your Twitter page if you have one. I want to make sure I'm following everyone around here. (I know I'm following a few already.)

    Though I rarely tweet these days (I may start again at some point), and when I do, it's rarely about movies.

    I didn't know there was anything else to tweet about.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I just realized something really cool about Twitter while reading back through my 70-odd tweets so far. It's a great place to make a list of things you like and refer back to it later. Things like this:

    I really need to go to Austin now.

    Austin is the coolest place I've ever been.

    You can't throw a rock without hitting a place where live music is played. Super friendly people, too. My band played SXSW one year, it was amazing.

    I want to move there in a few years.

    Oh yeah, instead of posting my username, I'm going to let you guess which one of these people is me:

    To be warned, I have bots linked in with my twitter which include Foursquare and Youtube. My Twitter is also tied in with Buzz. I used Twitter hardcore this past weekend to track info during PAX East with people on another forum. Worked really well.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    So far on twitter, I've been blocked by Curt Schilling, Bomani Jones, Tim Cowlishaw and Shulie from the Howard Stern show. I never once used foul language. Just debating their-over-the-top "opinions". I challenged them all to the point where they got so frustrated they'd rather just block me than explain themselves. The worst offender being Shulie since he's (supposed to be) a comedian and should have been born with thick skin.

    I rarely tweet as well. Just read tweets when I'm bored.

    I tweet about a little of this and a little of that. I've had people unfollow me because sometimes I'll get on a subject and tweet only about that one thing for about a week or so.
