    People who think reisling is the best white wine never had an aged, unfiltered Chardonnay. That shit is amazing. And I typically hate Chardonnay.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    Honestly, I signed up for Twitter once months ago, and then never used it. Any of my friends that I would want to stay in contact with are either on Facebook (which I already use) or in my gmail contact list.

    Yeah, it was a really shitty start to the service. Google really dropped the ball on it. >.<

    Twitter requires some capacity for acquiring friends and people who want to hear what you have to say.

    So instead I use forums.

    The thing with Twitter is that you can update via your cell phone.

    I don't wanna deal with it, because I have to pay per text here.

    No, it was a privacy loophole that Google overlooked. Something about whether you opted or not, people could search for you and find who you were friends with. My memory is a little hazy on the details, but it wasn't her fault, I believe.

    I don't know how you can get around it. Unless you approve someone (they need an account) they can't see your tweets. The information you fill your profile with is still visible, however.

    I don't want to have to approve everybody. I just want to block Crazy Stalker.

    Ooo that sucks. It appears her concerns are also with Google Reader, which went through a similar thing if I recall correctly.

    No, that wouldn't work. You can block accounts but unless you have your tweets protected then anyone without an account can see your tweets.
