    It can at times be hard to end things longer than 400 words.

    I have NEVER heard of them and am once again confused as hell as to how something like this or even Facebook, Gawker, etc. makes money.
    Does anyone actually READ ads on these web sites. No one I know has purchased something because they were on a web site and an ad enticed them...

    @BooWahBabe:

    That's what everyone thinks. No one EVER admits to being susceptible to advertising. You probably don't even realize it, but I guarantee you've been influenced by online advertising in the past. We all have... even if you don't necessarily click through.


    Advertising works no matter what the medium is.

    @BooWahBabe: CAN RYAN TATE OR OWEN THOMAS OR HAMILTON NOLAN OR NICK DENTON PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW ADVERTISING WORKS SO THAT THESE COMMENTERS DON'T CONTINUE TO SAY "I NEVER CLICK ON ADS, SO HOW DOES IT WORK?"

    You already used the "140 character" line in the Karl Rove story. You must be under a lot of pressure to crank these out since the downsizing.

    @lawnsprinkler: Au contraire, mon frere! As Twitter brings us into the 140-character age, it is a trope we shall constantly revisit.

    This whole column is dubious. Especially since so many 'famous' people on twitter are, um, fake.


    Not that this is always a problem. michael_bay is absolutely hysterical, and way more entertaining than the real thing.

    There is no way the TinaFey twitter is actually her. Look at the Twitter's poop joke ratio. It's wayy out of character.

    @thatonegirlsays: i think we're supposed to bowled over by something or other. But given that two of the twitter posts (twittings?) are about excretion, it's a bit sick-making.
