Is twitter a social network?

No.

And if that was the whole post, it would have been enough. Twitter’s capability to transform into one of the most spammable and in the same time one of the most useful websites in the net. If you have twitter account and in the same time you follow many people, the process of managing such amount of information is inhuman.

On top of that many new applications can post automatically on your wall information like where you are, what you are buying and etc. Why do I need this? I don’t actually! Facebook’s feature to block such irrelevant information is superb.

One should understand that twitter is a micro blogging website, not a advertising or geolocating tool. Yes in some cases they are useful but to majority of us it is not.

So Twitter, please, make a blocking feature, thanks!

    Hahaha. ;-)

    Nice post, but you’re so wrong about it. Twitter is the best thing that could happen in the social environment after facebook. You just need to learn how to use and manage it.

    P.S. About the blocking feature – that would be interesting addition, but only for external applications, not for twitter tweets :-)
