depends also on what you do. i work with many companies and many entrepreneurs so that's where twitter is useful. solo-entrepreneurs, consultants, bloggers might also find very it useful.
also, if you go to local programming/hacker meetups, you're bound to find a few who use twitter.
- unalone 18y agoBut that's the problem. I dislike most programmer/hacker types. While I think I've something of a hacker personality, I'm far more a critic than I am a hacker. And most hackers are completely unpolished and unfocused. The people who follow my account on Twitter, for instance, are the sorts of people who constantly linkspam. I can't stand that. And I find some people on Twitter funny, but that isn't productive and it's not thought-provoking. Blog posts at least provide some thought: Twitter, I find, rarely does.
- fallentimes 18y agoWow that's a lot of generalizations. What if you just stuck to following friends only? Or is it the chicken/egg problem? Just because they follow you doesn't mean you have to follow them. :)
