Who likes twitter is it over rated?,

I've got a twitter account and never use it. I think it can be useful for BBC News feeds and things like that, but  following the random (and often pretty banal) musings of some celebrity's twitter account is pretty soul-destroying. (Take a look at Paris Hilton's vacuous ramblings to see an example.)

I use Twitter regularly, as a professional social network and user-generated news source.  There are a lot of highly knowledgable and informed people with timely and useful tweets, so for my own purposes I don't think it's over-rated.

To anybody complaining about the banality or offensiveness of certain tweeps, just be more selective about who you follow!

As with other websites, Twitter can be a useful tool

Yeah I think it is:)
