Something strange has happened to the universe. We have stopped talking to each other, talking like we mean it with deep and understanding discussions and digressions about everyday life. Our friends are no longer friends, but Facebook friends, and when we talk to them, we either update our Facebook site or send them a short message through Twitter.

Twittering is a monologue, and not a dialogue; hence, we talk to people, but we do not really have a conversation anymore, or ask how people are doing and what their thoughts are. We just tell them how we are doing, what we are doing, where we are going, and end up with our house being robbed because some dumb criminal understands how to read a tweet!

BTW, twittering reminds me of school, and how much I really hated to be part of a class where the teacher held long and boring monologues without any chance of discussion. Boooring!

How we can dub Twitter a social networking technology is beyond me. I would rather call it me-myself-and-I technology.

The last thing on the Twitter heaven is an integration for World of Warcraft and your Twitter account; they named it TweetCraft. It is kind of hilarious, or is it not!?

I just say Tweet my God and tell me that salvation is near!
