Are You On Twitter?

You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter
And if you aren’t there already you’ve missed it
If you haven’t been bookmarked, retweeted and blogged
You might as well not have existed
In the old days it was all about achievements
Collecting all your trophies in a shrine
Then everybody came across the internet
And suddenly you had to be online
A home page was all you really needed
To seem like a success but not a geek
As long as you updated semi-annually
And checked your email once or twice a week
You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…
Technology was moving rather quickly
And the next thing you needed was a blog
With intimate and detailed press releases
And now and then a photo of your dog
More recently the students brought us Facebook
And everybody has a hundred friends
The parties in the photos look amazing
They’re not so great but everyone pretends
You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…
Now you need to publish every movement
And every single thought to cross your mind
I’m told the Twitterverse is full of rubbish
But most of us are actually quite refined
We validate each other’s insecurities
And brag about the gadgets that we’ve bought
We laugh out loud at every hint of jolliness
And try to self-promote without being caught
You’re no one if you’re not on Twitter…

  • Haha! Great music! Great! I didn’t know it. Seems like our lifes are being controlled by the internet doesn’t it? Well, we always have the disconnect option to run to if we feel too afraid of the lack of privacy.
    Yeah yeah! I’m already following you on twitter!

  • Twitter is an excellent place to tweet on .They have got a great growth from the corporate web world. I like it very much as I can find my old friends over there.
