Twitter, I gave up

Some people are crazy about Twitter. I don't. I joined Twitter when it first came out. After few weeks, my enthusiasm for micro-blogging has gone to nil.

Recently I saw Twitter discussions in few different blog posts. I wonder if I should start using Twitter again? After some thinking, my conclusion that is that it's better for me to stay away from Twitter.

Why I gave up on Twitter:

  1. Don't want to tell the world what's on my mind too often.

  2. Posting too much Twitter messages can gave people (esp. my boss) a false impression about me being a slacker.

  3. Posting Twitter messages can't advance my writing skill.

  4. Don't feel comfortable with strangers following me on Twitter.

  5. I'm already too occupied with other social media (Facebook, my blogs and gnizr etc.)


Do you share my experience? Or are you a Twitter lover and have a different perspective?

Let me know.
