Brad talks about Twitter. It's nice having him back in the design office. "I slightly have to urinate. Twitter!"

Gay laugher = Mitchell, not me.

Whoa -- this is bizarro. We have a guy over here, Jonathan, who does the EXACT SAME THING.

Are these occurrences isolated? -- OR is the Twittering-out-loud the new thing?

Man, I hope not. Oh the static, oh the agony.
Jonathan Marcus 3 years ago

Now Im just like Brad...fortunately, the Vimeo devs have started doing the same thing - though more so to laugh at me than with me. Twitter!

If you are anything like Brad, then I must meet you.

I committed Twitter suicide two weeks ago.

A few minutes ago I was wondering what the initial appeal was. Was it the right combination of simplicity, novelty, and popularity?

I can't help thinking it was something deeper; some urge I can't articulate yet; some acknowledgment that although the service as a whole gets it all wrong, maybe it did something right -- something that I want very badly.

Connectedness.

That's what I'm looking for. When we share the smallest, seemingly unimportant parts of our life with others, especially if we feel that others care about that little bitty stuff, it makes us feel connected.

At least that does it for me, and I dig it.

Vimeo, Flickr, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Blogging.... All connection-enablers. At least that's what I'm in it for.

I used twitter for about a week and then it's novelty wore off. Eh. I'm not really upset about it, either.

I enjoy the twitter. I just twatted a link to this clip.
Joshua Blankenship 3 years ago

Much like Vimeo, I think Twitter's appeal *should* be in terms of keeping up with friends - more of a small feel. Of course, when strangers start becoming your "friend" everything gets weird and then you have an "audience."

Complicated.

Also, wash that mouth out with soap, boy.
Rob Mientjes 3 years ago

The scary part is when people like you for what you do, that being the reason they add you as a "friend". The internet and its evil ways...

what shirt is Brad wearing. looks like a coffee shirt.
Ryan Sims 3 years ago

It's actually a shirt that a friend of ours at Apple sent us - an iPod shirt from some Japanese event or something...

It's true, it is what people use Twitter for:

I think the only way to tolerate twitter is to never have it call your phone. Ohh and don't use the phone to update it.

Hmm, kinda defeats the whole point. But I still use it in that pointless way... haven't quite figured out why yet.

Twit Twat! I just got Twitter and I don't really like it...it seems somewhat pointless.
nshack 2 years ago

Glad you are blazing the trail and letting me know what's pointless before I devote any time to it... nice clip!

Just watched a cool movie on vimeo. Twitter!
