Maybe that says more about -your- bubble and usage than about twitter.

I've rarely had that experience. Maybe once in 5 years.

It actually suggests you hate your bubble, lol.



What do you use twitter for? I remember seeing Jack on the colbert report in the 2000s talking about being profitable as company. In those 20yrs I've never felt the need to tweet or read tweets. What's the appeal?


I imagine it's horses for courses.

I detest / deleted Facebook with an ungodly passion ... but I can see how some people find some use for it.

I like twitter, apart from the political loons ... but, of course, everything is a function of what you put in and who you follow.

To answer your question: timeliness, access to "top" thinkers, a bubble created and curated without baby pictures.
