Twitter Boycott Looming as a group temper tantrum

Posted by admin on May 17, 2008 at 9:50 am.

May 21rst is the “Boycott Twitter Day”, which is generally, refuse to use twitter for one day because people don’t like the outages that Twitter has been having. Twitter is a great service, that has seen its own share of outages and performance issues, but is that worthy of a boycott?

Probably Not.

So is this boycott really about teaching Twitter a lesson or is it a group tantrum? Source: Mediaphyter

You can read other equally interesting statements here.

Lets see, will anyone die, is there blood, anything broken in terms of life and limb, no not really. While the ebay boycott folks had a leg to stand on, if you hate twitter, go to Jaiku or Pownce, they exist, they are alternatives, do what you want. But this is really on the lower end of the totem pole in terms of significance or duration.

If you really hate twitter go somewhere else.

Just a thought, and good luck with that boycott!
