Personally, I can't see the point of Twitter.

Let's see what everyone else thinks in their moments of procrastination by answering this question.


Twitter is a marvellous addition to social networking and a wonderful means of keeping up to speed with the latest developments, unrivalled by RSS feeds and and checking source websites for updates. Discuss.

Stephen Fry does it and thatmakes it seem very, very interesting. I followed this thread and have joined, but every time I try to access soemthing on the site it tells me it's too busy so I can't make an informed response. I've kind of given up trying now, although who knows where procrastination will take me in the future.

I have spent all my free hours sitting in front of jeeves and wooster recordings (Eska, stephen fry reminded me to admit this) and now cant seem to stop :-( arrgh.

In answer to that question:

Twitter is sh*tter

I am such a poet. Who says scientists haven't got the imagination..?!

Twitter was central to a course called 'the digital researcher' held by Vitae and the British Library earlier this month. The idea was to explore how to use twitter and other web 2.0 in your research. I've written some of it up as this month's PGR Tips: http://www.vitae.ac.uk/CMS/files/upload/PGR%20Tips%20issue%2040%20digital%20researcher.pdf. Happy reading.

Is there a tweeter account for findamasters too?

Really twitter has now become the God for everyone over here.

I can't log on twitter here. I think the government is blocking it. Pity!:-(

Perhaps it's just me but the 'Add this page to your social networking sites:' comment seems stuck at the bottom of my screen and is in the way of text!

Is it just me?
