I have never understood the concept of Twitter and such, is it basically like Live Journal with a text limit ? How do the interactions even work ? Just people saying something unprompted and then people just talk?

    Huh okay yeah I opened a Twitter so many years ago and deleted it, I didn’t have anything to say and didn’t care to hear anyone’s burbs anyway. That makes a lot of sense then. I just don’t get the appeal at all! Thank you.

      You probably aren’t real caught up in celebrity worship of any sort. It always seemed to me like a big chunk Twitter was celebrities being able to spam random stuff out to a bunch of their fans. I don’t much care about celebrities of any kind, so I never was compelled to use Twitter. However, LOTS of people are way into celebrities, including the giant number of minor social media celebrities, for whatever reason, and those folks probably love being spammed by them very frequently.
