    Can Guy Kawaski and others start paying for their spam tweets, then? Seriously. I had to attend a conference where Guy spoke so I signed up for his twitter. 24 hour of almost constant ad spam. Yuck.

    @kitkatsplash: What isn't? Searching my geographic region shows 95% news link spam from the local media affiliates, aggressive marketing of various causes, and home-based business promotion. The delusion these people have is that they're somehow not lost in noise because they don't see the noise alongside their tweet the way they would in, say, website comments.

    @Inescapeable Picnic: Absolutely. I've notice since 12/08, that I get about 10 "follows" per day from spammers, sometimes 20. And, I don't even use twitter anymore. Time to close my account.

    So let me get this straight: people on Twitter tweet about crap that no one cares about. And this crap that no one cares about is so lame that it needs to be shared again on Valleywag every single day?

    You got punked Owen! Read Dylan's previous tweets to see what this one means. No one really ate his lunch.

    @HanselGrowf: Actually, the reverse-chronological order of Twitter posts means anyone attempting to construct a coherent narrative is the one getting punked.
