Twitter is for the birds

I could not bear to open a Twitter account. You have GOT to be kidding. Do I need to know who's overslept? Or about their cough? Or when they're going to bed? OK, someone's life must be pretty empty if that's all they have to say. The minute by minute minutiae of someone's daily life is not the stuff of great reading-- or even barely interesting reading.



And how could this be used in a library setting? Please, someone give me some ideas!
