Twitter C/D

i find it annoying and i have an irl friend who does it! i have yet to say anything to him. i feel like twitter is one thing, facebook another, so update accordingly.

My little brother twittered the other day onto facebook a tinyurl link that led back to a blog he wrote about twitter. Not gonna gas him, but I am gonna smack him upside his head next time I see him.

I am perfectly comfortable with using the Facebook status as microblog space, even though it breaks the format of "Kenan is..." and looks dumb. I figure that's Facebook's fault, not mine. Besides, I only have so many random song lyrics and useless chunks of head debris to go around. Why spread it thinner?

Also, people comment on my Facebook status, not so much on my Twitter page.

The only thing worse than web 2.0 wanks is people who get all pissy about web 2.0 wanks.

(FWIW: I'm a web 2.0 wank who syncs his Facebook status with Twitter. I was going to do an update earlier saying "This combined Twitter and Facebook update is dedicated to Dommy P" but I really couldn't be arsed.)

My new twitter/facebook message is "The only thing worse than web 2.0 wanks is people who get all pissy about web 2.0 wanks."

National Post reporter has total Twitter melt down

National Post technology reporter David George-Cosh let loose on a marketing consultant from Toronto today. Apparently feeling snubbed April Dunford, an experienced marketing professional hadn’t called him back on time for a story he was working on; he took exception to her annoyed Tweet after their phone call:

At just about 1:00 pm EST, April Dunford tweets: “Reporter to me “When the media calls you, you jump, OK!?” Why, when you called me and I’m not selling? Newspapers will get what they deserve”

And that Tweet - note she never “outed” the reporter; simply expressed her frustration. This is what she set off:

sirdavid: @aprildunford what the fuck. I called you for comment two days ago. What did you expect when you called me back? Don’t post that shit online

sirdavid: @aprildunford furthermore, I called you several times in the afternoon. Don’t be condescending to me when I actually wanted to talk to you

sirdavid: @aprildunford how about you stop blasting personal conversations on twitter and call me back. what the hell is wrong with you.

aprildunford: @sirdavid All I did was return your call. I didn’t expect you to do anything. Wow. Like, seriously, calm down.

sirdavid: @aprildunford & then repost everything? & then hang up on me & don’t call back? I’ve recorded everything. U don’t look as nice as u put on

aprildunford: @sirdavid Dude - I never said who you were. Twitter meet David. David is having a bad day. David, meet Twitter.

sirdavid: @aprildunford hey april - fuck you. seriously. fuck you.

sirdavid: @aprildunford if u can’t handle any heat from what u post and immediate hang up, fuck u. u know my number. u call if you want to settle.

aprildunford: @sirdavid Re-read what you have just Twittered. Then re-read what I Twittered. Deep breaths David. Calm.

Terry Moran announced last night that Nightline now has a Twitter feed, but he was barely suppressing a smirk as he did so, as if to say, "I can't believe this is what journalism has come to."

sirdavid: @aprildunford hey april - fuck you. seriously. fuck you.

Wait a minute, you're not joking?

Even the hip-hop artist MC Hammer, who arrived to present some awards, couldn't quiet the crowd down.

Please Hammer don't quiet the crowd down.

ENBB followed me! I felt special. ;) I followed a bunch of LOST characters last night, I am super lame.
