After one month, my Twitter experiment is closed. I deleted my account a few minutes ago. Some would say I didn't give it enough time and should have interacted more. I just couldn't take it anymore. And couldn't get in to it. Without insult to anyone I followed or browsed, I simply don't care if you had a great breakfast, just finished a good book, watched a movie, walked the dog, picked your kids up at school, visited a loved one, post to your blog, finished a proposal, thought of a new business to start, found a prospective business partner or any of the other countless trivia you shared. And I seriously doubt any of you cared about the mind-numbing trivia I shared. I'm sure Twitter works for some people, it just doesn't for me. And I don't see it helping me attract corporate executives - my primary sales target. Thanks to everyone who shared in the experiment, as brief as it was. Trackback(0)

Useless Crap
written by Jim, June 17, 2008
Hi Aaron! Thanks for the comment, but no need to feel bad about me no longer tweeting...if that's the right way to put it.
I was one of those people posting a lot of useless crap :-) report abuse

It's also a matter of volume - I had to stop following a super-mega-star marketer on Twitter because he would Tweet 50 times a day and mostly about stuff that's of no interest to me. If the guy would write about his actual marketing practice instead of what he's ordering at happy hour, I'd be more interested ;)

I agree. There is too much noise and my time can be spent more wisely. I think people are going to start valuing their time and where they are spending it as they begin to see that some services aren't providing the value they need.

I'm pretty vigilant about not following people who write useless crap. I've actually learn a lot from the people I follow over the course of any given day. But you're right, big executives have better things to do than use twitter, more often than not
