Twitter to use BitTorrent for backend

I'd better not hear another defensive peep from you about Twitter or stupidity and shortage of free, sane thought will shine thru like the sun thru a church. I'd hate to find out how you'd respond to a genuine problem I am not protecting Twitter, I was just ASKING why you revealed you hated it. All I say is if you are getting that bent unfit over Twitter, I am not sure how you survive on the web without getting a headache. He then brought it up in a meeting and claimed he didn't see why we didn't need to use twitter as he finds it a handy way to stay abreast of things like updates on his sports groups. He gets distracted by new glossy things and likes to find things he likes in his personal life to stay abreast of his social agenda and try and use them in work. He is famous for casually purchasing something and then placing it in my lap and asserting Find a use for this and make it work rather than taking a need and finding the best technology to meet that need.

I'm employed in education IT and he's been a massive drain on the department and to be truthful is hated by almost all of the teachers and is a giggling stock of our surrounding colleges. I think I have more vital things to do than to fill my day with standing updates and if I want to send a fast message to somebody I have lots of ways to do that without subscribing to some foolish service. He then brought it up in a meeting and related he didn't see why we didn't desire to use twitter because he finds it a useful way to keep abreast of stuff like updates on his sports groups. Simply because social networking is the current trend doesn't suggest we all have to buy into it like the brainwashed herd buys into sports and everything else. It's all just the newest way to further dumb down the masses, if only more folk would escape from the 'koolaid' mindset and stop purchasing into this drivel. I'd hate to find out how you'd respond to a genuine problem I am not protecting Twitter, I was just ASKING why you expounded you hated it. All I say is if you are getting that bent out of shape over Twitter, I do not know how you survive online without getting a headache.
