I guess I am in the minority, but I use and like Twitter. Sure, you can get some details you really don't need or care about, but that really depends on who you follow. For example, I follow a local TV station and get headlines to stories I probably missed because I never get home in time to see the news; the Garmin-Chipotle cycling team and get results and cool little anecdotes from inside the team; TwitterLit gives you the first line of a novel each day; Rebuild Lakeshore gives you updates on how the recovery from Katrina is going ... well, you get the point. It's almost like an RSS feed. Individuals that I follow tend to comment on things that we have in common — youth ministry, cheering for Michael Phelps — or asking a question for fellow Twitterites to answer (again, predominately ministry-related in my case). BTW, you can block people from following you and you can make your Twitter feed private so that you can approve anyone who requests to follow you. Oh, and it's not free, but you can follow Amazon MP3 on Twitter and get their daily deal. Full downloads of mp3 albums for $2.99 usually. Hmm.

Ideally you wont post about "eating yogurt" but instead about significant things that are fun, useful, or serious in your life with a community that you choose to be open or closed with (Things you are into or doing that you might not normally post on your blog).

Nobody cares that you are eating yogurt in your crocs (and black socks, no doubt ;) ). Twitter is a bit stalkerish in my opinion. Random interwebbie folk do not need to know what the Altrogge family is doing every second, it's just not right. You’re right.

By signing up for a free subscription every months (which takes all of a minute) you can download thousands of songs for free. They don't have everything, but there's certainly enough to make checking it out worthwhile. A great free site, if you like music and use a windows machine, is Spiralfrog.
