"So, what exactly is twitter?"

It's where everyone goes to discuss the size and shape of their bowel movements.

Same with Hillary Clinton’s Twitter feed, I even took a screen shot. But other feeds were working.

>>Stay OFF Social Media. Keep your private life, private<<

People should have the smallest interwebz footprint possible.

Only idiots put their personal data on fb, twitter, etc.

Even if you have accounts on those to read what oters post, lie about your DOB (if that is required) and do not put any other information on them.

And never post anything.

I teach 4th grade math and my students are absolutely amazed that I don’t use social media. For that matter, so are the other teachers.

Yup that’s me, a Luddite who works in a buggy whip factory

I am getting old, but use the web for all manner of things. My friends know who I am and we communicate via email and text. But I don’t smear my name and face across the net. My brother a Facebook user, got an email or text from my youngest boy with a picture of my son’s first deer. My brother puts it on his Facebook account. He tells me this! What? GET IT OFF.....NOW !!

Every day I see people arrested, divorced, fired, investigated for telling the world what they think about (to them) harmless aspects of their life.

Enjoy Facebook
