I'll admit it: Twitter kind of makes me groan every time I think about it. However, it's a great medium for a site like Retro: a way to keep people up to date on status changes, news and events, and general stupidity. Therefore, I've gone ahead and set up a Sonic Retro Twitter feed: http://xcancel.com/sonicretro Follow us today! :D
I have been looking for a clip of this for AGES. Thank you XD For what it's worth, it's probably about time we got on Twitter =P
Followed, something that can keep us updated on the latest Sonic Retro news like Twitter can be great.
Honestly, I love Twitter. It's absolutely great for getting wind of news before a lot of other sources, if you're following the right people. Great to see Retro on it - it goes without saying I'm now following it.
eh I still see no point in Twitter. It's just this years in thing. I look forward to Retro having a Burgle (does not exist yet to my knowledge. =P) feed next year.
IRC is too much of a hassle to get onto for most of Western culture these days. If it's not instant, it's not happening. Besides, when you do get onto #retro to check the latest info in the channel topic, you're greeted with "<Sik> I eat lots of shit". Hardly newsworthy. :P (well not anymore, but there's always silly and nonsense in it)
We could say the very same thing about every service in existence on Internet, really. Besides, Twitter seems to be used more for work than for random personal "blahbling" :P Although I don't use Twitter much, I have an account only because I don't want to miss what Sega says on their own Twitter :X (I know, I could access their Twitter page directly, but who cares :P). Which reminds me... *goes to check*
The Retro Twitter says you're down. Haven't been for a couple of days. Might want to get that fixed. :P
Oh! I finally followed on there with my account, if you don't mind. ;D So, that way, I can up to date with my following sites.
