Twitter "Games" Are Annoying

We can assume everyone is on Twitter (like me: @Outsanity). Millions of people are posting the most brain dead things that you would think people that connects them some how. Beyond that, we can get and send important news and updated. We all know about apps and sites that pay you to post an ad once a while. Which brings me to the point of my post. Now, I don’t get or understand most of these Twitter “games” Like Spymaster and others.

As a Twitter user, I say if you must partake in these games, please, make sure you don’t annoy your followers. Me, I don’t mind only because I follow so many people I won’t notice the game tweets. Now, a DM is different. They can really bulk your DM inbox as well as your email. As a tip, if possible, please keep it from sending DM invites or flooding your timeline or you’ll end up losing your followers. No one likes to lose followers.

Oh, but this is not aimed towards the game players.

This is towards the sites that make these games. You people create these “games” for Twitter and my gut feeling says you KNOW what your game will do. All I want to say is you need to fix it so maybe it will stay on your website or options to post actions on twitter or not or maybe pick certain hours to post them. I’m not saying I hate or like these games. Just asking for some kind of fix, so to say.

Hey Nintendo...

You know, I kinda dig the fact I can upload my DSi photos to Facebook but, something seems missing to me. At some point, I would like to see maybe a Twitter DSi Ware that can also upload DSi photos to TwitPic. That would be nice to have I think. Another thing is that you have all the classic games in the Virtual Console. I say make one that will let us download Gameboy and Gameboy Advance games on the DSi.

Oh! And how about some sort of kit so people can make their own DSi Ware? Just a thought.

@officialTila vs. @ShawneMerriman: Do We Really Need This Bullshit On Twitter?

Yeah. So, looks like now Tila Tequila (@officialTila) and Shawne Merriman (@ShawneMerriman) are using Twitter to basically trash talk each other while using their own hashtags, Tila's #Justice4Tila and Shawne's #lightsOut, to make this story even more known to people who don't give a fuck. If you are one of the people who do give a fuck, then may God be with you and your retardation.
Last I remember, it was 9/11. Well, yesterday of this post it was. So, rather than posting anything else Twitter has to be flooded with bad mouthing. What makes it worse is the sheeple who follow them and help spam this drama. It's just so God damn stupid to me. it's one thing to follow a celeb but, don't promote their drama. That's what TMZ and Perez Hilton are for.
As for me, I tend to just ignore it or just laugh. Why laugh? Well, hitting a woman or anyone is a serious issue but to carry it out like these two are making themselves into a big ass joke.

Are Twitter Contests Really Spam?

I don't mind a good contest but it seems that Twitter is the new place for winning MacBook Pros or something else. And the only way you win is by spamming some hashtag out the ass until you win. Now, I know the one reader of this blog will say "But it's just for fun." or some bull like that. Yes, they may be fun but, sooner or later, they will be annoying to your followers. The way I see it, these hashtag contests are helping the spam problem rather than trying to reduce it. If there wasn't no spammers on Twitter, I would guess there would be no issue.

Tweet And We'll Sue You

I heard about this but I didn't think this was real. I won't go into details but, I will post a link to the article on the Chicago SunTimes website.

So, here lies my issue. Why can a company just up and sue someone over an opinion posted on the internet? Do they think that one person's internet thought will crumble their company? So what if she puts down the building? People put down a lot of things on the internet and they never get sued. Now, I can understand if she is constantly slandering the building manager which could strike a lawsuit. You mean one tiny comment, that not many people would even notice or read, is worth all this? Talk about more internet censorship. To make the owner of the building look more like a douche-ass he even said:

We’re a sue first, ask questions later kind of an organization.

Sue first? Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Waste money on lawyers before asking about anything. They even are asking for $50,000 in "damages". What damages? Horizon Realty Group are just retards. Words don't damage physical things. Well, unless you throw a dictionary at something. Anyways, here's how I see the outcome - Horizon Realty Group will lose this case. HANDS DOWN!

The YouTube Of Twitter

Not since TweetTube have I ever liked a video service that uses Twitter. That changed just this morning. I stumbled upon two sites. Now don't get confused because they have the same name but different domains. One is TwitVid.com and the other is TwitVid.io. I did a YouTube video on them both and gave my views on them.

What I want to do is quickly give you the pros/cons of both sites.

Pro: They allow you to send a video message to people or to just post something on Twitter.
Con: The fact the domain is almost the same.
Con: They basically do the same thing.
Pro: .io let's you send a video as a DM (Direct Message) and does not show up in your video list.
Pro: .com lets you send your video to Facebook, MySpace and YouTube.
Pro: .com actually has a chatroom powered by

You Forgot To Say "UNO!"

Man, between Facebook and MySpace, they are both equally boring. But this morning, I saw @DannyMinick's TwitPic post and I thought it Was from the Xbox. He told me it's from Facebook. Yup, They have an Uno App on Facebook. I have to say, I was just having a blast  with it. It now gives me something worthwhile to do on Facebook. I bet you MySpace don't have Uno. But, I bet they will only after Facebook had it first.
