Don't believe 2degrees have an agreement with twitter yet, the error message will be because they haven't set up that short code within their SMSC.

Here's a Twitter feed/list I made. http://twitter.com/Mriceguy/buttonmasher

There's quite a lot of us on this Twitter thing!

Heres my pov on twitter, its for famous people, and for people who want to know what famous people are doing.

Alot of people i know will post stuff on it like "going out to party"
and tbh, i couldn't give two shits.

If it was someone important, maybe i would.



flame away!

[Sparky]

I love Twitter to get my motorsport news as it happens. Oh and to stalk celebs

[Mriceguy]

It's also a very good way of hearing news very fast.

And the people who hate twitter don't realise this point.

Being famous is no excuse. If all your tweets look like that, then you're not worth following. I don't get the fascination with celebrities in general, and I don't follow anyone I haven't actually met. Okay, I don't follow many people I haven't met. I make a special exception for Sparky. He's so dreamy...

For me.
Twitter is getting alot more interesting since there are some dudes on here that twitter alot and its funny to hear stories about whats going on in peoples lives
More personal look to people on buttonmashers and its good to get to know them more
Like i never would of known Leggetron got locked in a elevator for 2 hours
It takes a while to have fun on twitter but once you get hooked its great

That's easy for you to say, you got to meet Felicia Day, Tim Schafer and Major Nelson all in once place!

Hah, that's true, but to be fair I don't follow any of them.
For me, Twitter is like an evolved form of txt messaging. It takes something that is a rather personal and cloistered form of communication and bumps it up so that you have the option of making it more public and open to your other friends being able to chime in. Yes there are some poor applications (like people whinging about Mondays - seriously, you think you're the only one, or that it's atypical to dislike them?)
Of course, having said that I can totally understand peoples apathy towards it when they don't have an iPhone or sufficiently capable mobile. I wouldn't care about txt messaging either if I could only do it from my home land line.

I decided to make one since the computer I was on at the time let me go on Twitter. I casually go on Twitter through my xbox now so don't be shy to add me folks. (Future superstar in the making)

Stop the presses, Twitter is broken!

I can't see anyone else's tweets in my home page. The closest I can see is the 12th of March!? And from the looks of things, it's happening to everyone.

Hopefully it'll get fixed soon, so I can get back to business. Twitter's like crack, I have to get my fix at least several times a day or else...

Unlikely to post many tweets, just using it to follow other people really
