What I really think about the writing space that twitter affords is ________________________. That is exactly my answer. When I think of twitter, absolutely nothing comes to mind. I made a promise to myself that I would never use twitter and I have kept that promise. Facebook is enough of a distraction for me. If I were to use twitter, the writing space would scare me. I don't like the idea that you do not get to choose who can follow you. I like keeping my thoughts to myself. I even like to write just to get it out of my head. I hate reading my own work after it's complete. Twitter exposes your ideas publicly. I don't have a problem sharing my thoughts here because at most about three people are reading this. That's not going to start a movement. In my opinion, twitter can either give you confidence (because you are hiding behind a screen) or it can put fear into. In my case it is definitely the fear factor.
I do have to agree that tweeting is writing. Writing is expressing ourselves and our opinions. Tweeting is definitely doing that. It would not scare me if it wasn't. Tweeting is like published writing. People can judge you and they will. Your tweets can be liked. People can express how they feel about them. I can honestly say that I have no idea what a tweets purpose actually is. I think that twitter and tweeting is stupid. In my opinion, it has no purpose. Why do you need a twitter when you can just change your facebook status? If I had to compare a tweet to a status, I guess the purpose of a tweet would be like a public diary. You want everyone to know what is happening at every moment of your life. You want your follower or reader to enjoy your pain, happiness, awkward moments or jokes. Twitter does not make any sense to me, but for everyone else it seems to be a place where they can get everything off of their chest.
