What do you think of my self setting up a Twitter account. Looking at the stuff I come out with on hear I'm thinking twice about it but really don't know. I honestly think I could end up in the Sh** ..

Why ask us? Shouldn't this be your own decision if you think it's worth it or not? lol

I have one but never really use it. Just started using it somewhat more to follow local news stations' weather alert centers since I don't have cable, so that way I can keep an eye out for severe weather on my phone. Other than that, I follow a few game companies to keep up on updates from them.

Up to you really, it's no big decision really, I've got an account but I only follow a few tech companies, I haven't tweeted anything.

I also have one but never really use it. If I'm interested in updates from a person/company I just add their Twitter feed to my RSS client.

Edit: Huh. Apparently that's been disabled for a while but the accounts that I was keeping an eye on still work in Feedly. But I can't add any new ones. Weird.

I have one and I just use it to find out about minecraft updates, tech news, etc. I also follow bill gates
