What's your best tweet?
Nearing 20,000 tweets at this point; I'm sure there must have been a few gems.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What are six things you could never do without?
Why six? What if I'm really needy? I guess; Water, Food, Computers, Internet Access, Music, _____. ;-)
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
Spreading propaganda, insulting @_caustic_, watching for news, spreading news, watching alliances form. Pr0n. Wait...
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What's your favorite Twitter app?
I've been slacking a little on trying new apps as they come out because my favorite 2 rock. Official Twitter app, twhirl...
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Twitter or Facebook?
Twitter. I don't need pokes, if I need to write a long rant I'll blog it.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What was the funniest trend you've seen?
Usually I don't think they're funny... 3 worst words to say after sex? Seriously...?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What feature should Twitter add?
I like twitter as it is, no additional features come to mind at the moment. Unless eliminating spammers counts as a feature.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?
It's not coming to me at the moment...
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?
I never gave it specifically that much thought, I definitely try to limit shortening in the interest of readability.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?
@alqaeda
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?
Haven't we all followed someone back who seemed really cool and then they ended up twitflooding loads of junk so often you had to stop it?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Why should we vote for you?
I'm pretty sure this is one fairly unique feed, I'm not sure if that's actually good but I have a lot of fun.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?
Any of; Industrial, Rivethead, EBM, Darkwave, Synthpop, Futurepop would be pretty awesome to see trending.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?
Most of all, people in the industry, artists, labels, etc. They're all really cool. Especially the Sector9 guys like @Distraub & @Cellmod.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?
I'd say #BlameEBMRadio - some of it's uses cracked me up.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How do you make your tweets unique?
There is no method, only madness.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What inspires you to tweet?
The same thing that inspires most everything else I do. Spreading great music to anyone who'll listen! (and impulsive stupidity)
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Ever get called out for tweeting too much?
I bet I did around when I first started. People are usually so tolerant and polite though. Especially for a bunch of rivetheads.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
140 characters of advice for a new user?
Whenever you think of something/someone you like or are interested in, find & follow them. Good way to get started. Google is your friend.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How long can you go without a tweet?
Never bothered to try but I'm sure I've gone a matter of days without really getting around to it.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What question are we not asking here that we should?
One lump or two?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How do you imagine Twitter changing?
I try not to. I like it the way it is. I imagine it changing a bit like the news/twitter info indicates really. Why imagine anything else?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?
Maybe Will Wheaton? (@WilW) He's a cool guy, a geek and pretty famous actor who's down to earth and always in touch with fans.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Who is the funniest person on Twitter that you follow?
That's really hard. @_caustic_ & @MetropolisRec are hilarious. @Bllix is genius too though. Altogether I follow a lot of very funny people.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
That it's facebook as in myspace/facebook rather than simple microblogging with some small features added to make it a little more social.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Why should people follow you?
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Can you name some one-of-a-kind Twitter accounts that you follow?
@MetropolisRec is very singular. Most of our listeners are surprisingly unique, talk about infinite diversity.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How do you decide what to tweet?
Whatever's in poor taste or controversial, or music news I enjoy, or what's up with the station, else anything retarded.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Why'd you start tweeting?
I always like to try the latest thing. Twitter seemed like an interesting idea. I tried it, it stuck, I'm glad I tried it.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Oh yah, I can SO stalk all my favorite bands now. Also, it takes just seconds to piss off over a thousand people. How cool is that?
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?
I wish they would pay more attention to their links & understand how things work so they don't unwittingly send bad links so often.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How will the world change in the next year?
As with every year, even since before time, everything will change. If I knew more than that I'd be some impossible freak of nature and RICH!
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What are some big Twitter faux pas?
I don't care much for the term and with so many different people with so many different opinions it doesn't matter much to me.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
Within 10 years I will rule the earth or destroy it and rule the space it previously occupied.
