Excuse me for being ignorant, but can someone give me the quick and dirty on twitter. the worst part is, I am only 30, so you would think I would know what it is considering I hear so much about twitter.

If you are familiar with Facebook, which is a more "traditional" social networking site, this article goes in depth on how Twitter and Facebook are different: http://www.twitip.com/twitter-versus-facebook/

Following me would be pointless because I never post anything.

I do follow certain retailers to hear about specials (and Spyderco of course).

I have to admit, 98% of my twitter activity is following news sources: national review,Cato institute, scifwire, tuaw, a few journalists, a handful of old friends who actually use twitter to connect with their industries.

I guess you could say I use it as an interactive RSS feed reader.

Others use it more for neteorking, marketing, sourcing, and the like.

I'm curious, what retailers do you follow?

I think we will get along just fine! I'm pretty much interested in 90% of your bio.

Well, knife related, I follow woot.com, and poorfish, sometimes they have good coupon codes. Those are the most frequent posters of those I follow. Some others are more specific to other hobbies, oh yeah and I follow Conan O'Brien since he's not on TV at the moment.

Never used twitter.

BTW, this should be posted in the "Off-topic" section.
