What exactly is the point of Twitter? In some ways I feel like its great for getting quick updates on the news in a timely manner. Some people use it like Facebook, or they use it to build up their businesses by posting witty remarks on the news or other such things.
I feel like celebrities are big proponents of Twitter. It seems they use it almost the same way we use Facebook. They put up personal posts and a lot of times its about things happening in the news or its things they accidentally tweet out to the masses.
I even think of Anthony Weiner, the political figure who pretty much ruined his career when he accidentally posted a picture of his junk--wrapped in some tight briefs on twitter (of course, I knew it was coming, you know what they say about men with big noses ... ).
The latest blunder made by a celebrity, Ashton Kutcher, who at the beginning of this most recent scandal with Paterno and his old assistant coach.
He really made a blunder. Turns out he was misinformed. Coach Paterno should've been fired. He knew what was going on and did nothing about it. I read some of the court case, there was ample evidence and it wasn't lovely.
I have to admire what Kutcher is doing. He's admitting fault, he's admitting ignorance and it sounds heartfelt. Hopefully he learned his lesson.
Anyway, its interesting how many others have screwed up on Twitter. I've found a little list for you.
Lack of twitter is ugly.
