I have been using Twitter for ten years now. I only use it for horrible puns and (rarely) political comments. It is a toy for me, not really a tool. Nothing is wrong with having fun while developing stuff.

Just don't take it seriously.

For me, it is a tool. It's one of the two ways I can keep up-to-date with my work stacks new updates, features and keep up with the community. I personally dislike Twitter... But it's a fact for this type of work it seems.

We all look for different things in the same tools ( or toys ). I got to Twitter because I thought it would be a useful tool. I'm sure it can be, just not for me, not right now. I do think something is wrong with having fun while developing stuff ;) After or before, sure :D

But again, I'm not advocating against anything, I just want people to reconsider where their time and attention is spent :)
