I can understand Facebook, Bebo etc... Stay in touch, see photos, etc...
But I dont understand Twitter for ordinary people. Fair enough, you might want to follow some commentator or celebrity and see things that they say. But why on earth would you personally want to be saying anything (I mean, who would be following an ordinary mortal?), or hearing anything that millions of other strangers are saying?
Plus, I dont understand the hashtag thing. I hear about things Trending, and see things like #Budget2013 (to use an obvious example), but how do you decide what to use as the hashtag and how do you know what other people are using?
If someone made a comment about the recent Australian prank call would they use #prank, #prankcall, #queenprank, #kateprank etc? And how do they decide?
