I think it really only made sense to me when it was SMS social media.

Can't remember which phone I had but for something like this it was neat.

I made a Twitter account in the early days when I was a teenager. The sole reason I made it was because one of my favorite bands had an account. Their posts would be sent in an SMS to my phone, and the cool thing about that was how it felt like they were texting me personally.

I have no idea when I last logged in, let alone when I last posted. When the SMS feature was dropped, so did my interest.

The last time I used Twitter was when I had ubertwitter for blackberry.
