"Twitter is what you make of it." If what most people make of it is banal posts and celebrity watching, is it deserving of all the hype?

"Twitter is what you make of it."
If what most people make of it is banal posts and celebrity watching, is it deserving of all the hype?
- roc 17y agoAgain, you could say that of the internet in general. A medium is (un)deserving of 'hype' based on whether it can be used to do anything that appeals to us.
- whopa 17y agoThe Internet in general is not as narrowly scoped as Twitter's feature set, so that is not the same.
- roc 17y agoI don't see how scope is relevant. The argument is: do interesting uses of Twitter exist? If they do, the banal is irrelevant, since you never need to see it to access those interesting uses of Twitter.
