These are the two questions that Twitter asks its users.
Twitter is a social networking and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets.
Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered (via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or external applications) to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. (Wikipedia).
Despite its growing popularity, some users are starting to critisize the service. Among the reasons are high cellphone bills, messages at odd hours, or the need to tell their friends to stop announcing what they are having for dinner. Joan Collins said that "Twitter is the most banal and boring pastime ever invented"
But fans say that social networking services are a good way to keep in touch with busy friends.
What do you think? Are we "too connected"? Are twitterers (twitter users) twits (idiots)? Send us your "tweets" either giving your opinion on social networking sites or telling us what you are doing.

We are getting e-stupid !!!
I agree.
I don't have a twitter account, but I have one at tuenti. It's all the same... pretty boring, most of the time.
Honestly I don't understand how can people get adicted.
I'm sorry I don't write very good:
I believe he is rather stupid, because to be long time infront of a machine, can to finish on addiction. And all adictions are always very dangerous, this can be one more.
Perhaps the inappropriate use of new technologies can bring serious problems.
