Who is on Twitter?

[Wampus]

It took me VERY long time before I jumped on the Twitter-bandwagon - I hated it (without really knowing what it was about and how it could be used), but now I see the value.

*nods* For a long time I had the prejudice that Twitter was a collective manifestation of ADD and had no practical purpose. Now its a major element of the web for me.

And for any company hiring new people it's a goldmine to sort out those idiots from the paylist before they even show up there :-)

Talking about hiring,
one good think about twitter is that some people pack together freelancer work pages on specific subjects.
It´s quite similar to a freelancer / job site, but you don´t get the bulls... of paying or signing in and so on.

It´s quite nice as you get to browse what people need without spending money and there you know those people need something otherwise
they wouldn´t post. Other then freelancer job hunting, you also get to visit and meet people that buy your type of work (assuming they are from your area).

I find it quite useful as a work channel and last year I made some really nice bucks from it.
That is one way twitter is useful for me. Yet I don´t twiit myself, girlfriend seems to not enjoy me doing social stuff for some unknown reason...
