  Hi everyone!

  Recently this year, I had found out a brand new way of internet communication method and it's call twitter lol I know to many it's stupid or even crazy way to communicate by just updating status in 140 char

  However, after tweeting for some time about some boring day to day events...I started to get followers from local people that actually reply to my status in real time!

  Subsequently I replied back to many interesting tweets I get and started a whole conversation with many people.

  The crazy thing is many people in Singapore still in the dark about this wonderful tool to connect with people in real time and trust me it's the best way to get information from real people.

  However, I do get some spam followers that I don't follow them back hence won't get spammed.

  To better connect with local people, I had created this google document for new twitter users to find local twitter users easily.

  If you have any problem do email me at [email protected]

  muhhahahaha 

  The good thing that it's

  • Free to join at http://twitter.com/ 
  • Almost spam free as you can unfollow ppl that you think is advertising 
  • Choose who to follow or chat with
  • Able to follow news faster then web news
  • Able to report news as it happens
  • Able to share interesting stuff & form discussion anytime you like
  • Lot's of twitter clients usable by black berry & iPhone to twitter anytime u like with 3G connection (better then SMS)
  • iPhone have Push technology to push twitter replies just like SMS would
  • Able to know MANY friends local & overseas
  • Get reply for questions you ask by anyone who search at time time what you had asked.
  • you only get feeds from ppl you followed & a seperate replies feed & direct message (private)

  Different from the olden IRC chats where you can't filter spammers in the main feeds, twitter let you unfollow people who are trying to spam your accounts.

  
  

  Recently, twitter had been plagued by bots that auto create thousands of automated accounts to follow millions of people with their intention to push & market their products or website.

  
  

  You can choose to block them if you find them in your following list but many ignored them since you don't even able to read what they had spammed since you don't follow them back.

  
  

  The very reason why I had created the google document list is to eliminate the problem of following the bots by accident since bots can't manually add themselves into the google document list so those who are in the google list is actually HUMAN not bots.

  
  

  if you managed your twitter list properly, you will get real people replies almost instantanously whenever you tweets lol which is fun...and addictive :D
