Ashley Posted September 6, 2010 Posted September 6, 2010 They're topics. Popular ones appear in the 'top trending topics' area (at the moment in the UK there's #maxmonday and #happybdaymax so it must be someone famous called Max's birthday), although popular expressions appear there too (such as 'Alan Sugar' at the moment). Kind of like tags I suppose (from blogs, forums etc) to link together things. For instance I am subscribed to #veronicamarsmovie but I never check it, but its one way to see everyone mentioning it. A lot of people make them up as they go along, for instance:
Raining_again Posted September 6, 2010 Posted September 6, 2010 Good old odders and his extensive hashtags!
Diageo Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 Who is Thomson V7 and who is Chikybot? They both added me, and I have no idea who they are.
Captain Falcon Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 Who is Thomson V7 and who is Chikybot? They both added me, and I have no idea who they are. ShadowV7 and Pancake respectively.
Jimbob Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 I'm followed by them as well. I just laugh really that Monmouthsire CC keep requesting to follow me, even after i blocked them.

chairdriver Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 Getting reobsessed with Twitter. Follow me, beenas.
Paj! Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 I still can't be bothered with it. It helped when my internet had a Twitter button built in, so I had no excuse not to go on it, but I still find so little to pique my interest. I know you say I don't follow interesting people or whatever, Chair, but I've yet to find anyone worth following.
Daft Posted November 8, 2010 Posted November 8, 2010 I rarely read other people's twitters (Except for Batman, of course).I twitter for my future self. I find my past self amusing.
chairdriver Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 I find it makes me so much more knowledgeable about stuff. About news stories, politics, random shit etc etc. And people link to stunning stuff that I'd elsewise miss. My fave:
EEVILMURRAY Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 When I first started "Tweeting" or whatever I came across this lass http://twitter.com/feliciaday, don't know how. But she's the only good thing to come out of Twitter for me as of yet.
Paj! Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 I find it makes me so much more knowledgeable about stuff. About news stories, politics, random shit etc etc. And people link to stunning stuff that I'd elsewise miss. My fave: Coincidentally, I was going to link that song to you. I was stunned/perplexed as well. But I wanted to see the actual video, and got disheartened when I couldn't. So didn't show you. I didn't find it on Twitter, I just looked around the US iTunes store. Hai new P!nk song too.
Slaggis Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 But you can, it's been available on You-tube for at least the past few weeks.
Paj! Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Not available in my country. Which I assume is your too.
ReZourceman Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Not available in my country. Which I assume is your too. I just checked. WTF. WTF shit is that. How ridiculous. I feel like downloading her album illegally out of spite.
Paj! Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 [backspaced comment that sounded weird about Linkin Park and N-Dubz] :p
ReZourceman Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Linkin Park are amazing...so fuck you for that. P.S. I've seen the video anyway, so fuck your face mother fucker. P.S.S I think its got a character from The Wire season 4 in. Well not a character. An actor.
Frank Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Argh!! I'm trying to think in French for an oral that I have tomorrow, instead all I can think about is "I WHIP MA HUR BACK AN' FORTH....I WHIP MA HUR BACK AN' FORTH" Curse you all.
Ramar Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 I could've sworn I'd posted in a Twitter topic before. My twitter is @ElmigoRed which is basically a drunken joke nickname I have with friends.
