Well are we sick of the rain yet, I certainly know I am and because of this when sitting on the bus this morning no major thought provoking questions came to mind, so I asked the simple one,
“Why is it you love Twitter. I have my reasons which are obvious, and you?”
I think the rain really annoyed people this morning so the responses were very slow and few, but fortunately Elfinamsterdam and Icedcoffee were on hand to answer this simple question, and Twitter Question Time can continue.
ElfinAmsterdam was first to answer with “Sad I know, buts its a form of community for me being away from home (Ireland now living in Amsterdam). Also its a nice ‘office atmosphere’ during the week the odd smart comment and joke and bit of chat between tasks. At home its kind of like a nice friend … quiet when you are doing stuff and chatty when you want to chat, and it inspires me to blog better.”
Icedcoffee came on soon after with “the interaction, the quick response to questions, finding new people, getting news and links, spread the word about my blog etc”
As I said in my question my answer is so obvious, I find it a great place to chat to people I have never met, but hope too, and people I have known for years. To exchange jokes, take the piss out of each other, pat ourselves on the back when something goes right for someone, commiserate when iPhones break down etc
Yes I am a noisy tweeter, but thats what I love about it, getting reactions like last week when I attempted to take over Rick O’Sheas twitterfeed with the help of Peterd. We got a reaction and how it made us laugh, even Rick found it kinda amusing. So thats really why for me.
I promise to come back to better questioning on Thursday, see ya then!



Question for Thurs: Why didn’t the world end yesterday?
Question for Thurs: Why is the rain always wet?
as i’m new to twitter I am still getting used to it all. So far so good ,i like the idea of chatting to lot’s of people who are all over the place.
