i should walk around schools, find the most popular kids, and give them megaphones

no but the tweets r only bigger when ur looking at someones profile so its all their tweets not comparing them to celebrities or w/e

you can't stop me from giving kids megaphones!

now will someone please direct me toward a cheap megaphone outlet

it's like giving the popular kids megaphones connected to a pair of headphones

scrolling through ppl's followers/following looking for new ppl to follow sucks so much more now

hahahaha oh god

you know if you buy 10,000 of those they're only $1.38 each! i could stock them by the register at my cool new knickknack store!

i got a free one at tech event last week it still in my bag i keep finding it

those things work surprisingly well

facebook doesn't even get profile photos right. look at the artifcats!

artifacts

not that they've ever been known for their design outside of, like, paper

or that redesign they never officially rolled out to everyone

"artifcat" is a very disappointing Google search

so is arf cats

barf cats is really good tho

don't search for fart hats

you're an idiot and i'm going to stop engaging you

imho facebooks design was one of the main things that made it successful, it was way ahead of its time, it started to get muddled as it tried to do everything in the world and serve ads etc, but it used to be pretty great from a ui/ux perspective

Yeah it ws!

I would not smash Facebook in any of its incarnations

Who was that dutch design outfit they bought? They were good i think..?

the twitter week in review thing is pretty cool

omg i just turned the new profile on and then said i didn't want it and there is STILL that huge ad saying try the new profile design on top of my TL, why?

they're going to force you to get it eventually, so you may as well just learn to like it now

such is the way of things now.

Also, I didn't even know about this story until today, but totally agree that Twitter is useless for "controlling the conversation"

Another Eulogy for Twitter: http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/04/a-eulogy-for-twitter/361339/

Some of this rings true. It does feel a bit less fun to me, and a lot of the stuff that used to be fun to join, like shared shouting at the telly, seems to have stopped. I used to think it was just me/the people I follow, but maybe it's wider than that?

Also I'm pretty sure the continual fucking-around they're doing with the site and the apps is making it completely bewildering for new people, rather than a fun challenge like it used to be

Yeah I pine for the days of making pithy commments about x-factor with chris addison and caitlin moran and tracey thorn as well

yup http://valleywag.gawker.com/twitter-is-losing-momentum-and-money-1569492846

or at least they have failed at making it easy to use

shd prob just admit they are a service for l33t users and cater to that
