Hot Twitter Habits: Part One
Now that Twitter has hit the mainstream, let’s find out how the masses use their beloved service. In this first episode of two, we stop by the Twestival event to discover what some San Francisco tweetizens’ first Twitter posts were as well as how some use the service in more intimate of ways. You’ll need to watch to get the dirt. If you have no idea what any of this means, it’s time to come out of hibernation. The cave is a cold and lonely place. What was your first tweet? Tell us in the comments.

I think my first tweet was sent from the stage at the Climate Theater. I was on stage with Beefy and MC Router as part of our Mediocre Tour.

“The first tweet, is it always a meta tweet? because that is in fact, what I am doing. Shuffling Twits.”
The over analysis and dry humor very much in character.
Also, OCD.

As with all services, my first tweet (http://twitter.com/edrabbit/status/7103851) was looking for something to replace the awful default profile icon.

[…] Geek Entertainment TV recently polled some twitter users (you might recognize some) at twestivalSF about their habbits when it comes to tweeting including do you tweet before, during, or after sex? burning questions we all want to know (all though burning during sex is not good…hehe). […]

my first tweet is pretty generic.
“surfing the world wide web. should be going to sleep soon.
4:00 AM Mar 30th, 2008 from web”

I refuse to believe that Kevin Rose is a virgin.
I bet the Virgin America guy paid Rose to say that…

my first tweet:
“fuming. de-fuming. scouring. working. still waiting for a call.
4:22 PM Jan 16th, 2007 from web”
but before/during/after? lol! (great query Irina)
my 2nd tweet was re: a heavy-duty breakup, which I pissed & moped about for a goodly while…& since I haven't even tweeted making out-statuses, nevermind shagging nor dating for that matter.

In regard to the sex/twitter question:
Richard: Before and after (there's about 10 minutes between the two tweets).
Maureen: Not twittering much these days.
Richard: I could stretch it out to 15 minutes, if I concentrate, really.
p.s Maureen says “I was just wearing my red vloggies show shirt the other day. Made me think of Irina.”
