    Funny video, and true to a point. I will still use Twitter, but not for the random nonsense typified in this video. There still are plenty of good uses.

    YOU ALL HAVE NO FRIENDS! So funny. So true. And so sad.

    I’m going to go tweet this.

    Thanks for the comments, everyone! I use Twitter myself, but this video is funny for it’s truth — there is a lot of noise in the Twitterverse.

About BigBlueBall

Pardon the dust... but we are shaking things up at BigBlueBall. The site has been through a couple of evolutions, and this marks the latest and best yet!

Are you sick and tired of "Top 10" lists that don't really help you make decisions that will improve your life? That's a pet peeve of mine, too, and I'm doing something about it.

No more crap about the myriad of choices out there. Just the best choice. The right choice. The one fill-in-the-blank that rules them all. And all of them are vetted by us... through personal use and experience. These are the tools, the gadgets, the apps, the websites and the lifehacks that we use every day. No bullshit. Just good advice for better living.
