Twitter, The Social Lubricant of the 21st Century

Booze 2.0

R. Stevens expresses his fondness for Twitter in his latest Diesel Sweeties comic “Booze 2.0″. He can be found Tweeting at @rstevens.

Working alone in a room all day is so much easier when it seems like someone is next door. The best part? Unlike IM, there’s no rush to reply. Unlike Facebook, there’s no Zombies. You just gotta watch out for Rick Rolls.

I also work alone and concur with R. Stevens wholeheartedly regarding Twitter.

That’s why i slowed down my tweeting in the past few months and especially during the work day. As soon as I slowed down, my productivity greatly increased and in 3 weeks, I received a promotion :)

I’m not a hater but
is it the “cry for help” of the 21st century?

btw, is it the same 100 people fawning all over twitter?
