Re: I used Twitter to write porn

What you said about liking the asynchronous style - that's what I like about the things you mentioned, that they let you say something and come back later and read replies... the "short attention span" aspect is sort of what I like least about Facebook, and I suspect that I'd feel the same way about Twitter, perhaps more so. I don't like trying to type on a telephone dial, and (having been brought up to express my verbal thoughts in complete sentences), I'd find the telegraphic style enforced by the short text buffer would be rather annoying. (Cell phone messaging and web-mail interfaces are undoing the revival of social literacy that e-mail seemed on the verge of bringing about...)

I guess I'm just not used to posting status updates all the time as a method of pinging for social interaction - although describing it like that, maybe I should be?
