    I am. I am a huge fan, especially following all of the breweries/bars around D.C. They use twitter to announce new beers they have on tap and special beers they have coming.

    The other micro-breweries use it to promote new beers coming out, and even my LHBS announces new hops and ingredients they just got in!

    This is the ony reason I would join twitter. But I have no bars like this in my town, so no. I'm even taking a March Hiatus from FB because of my online dependency.

    Only if you have pictures to go along with the post... :eek:

    I don't do anything very exciting most of the time, so IF I was on twitter, it would be pretty barren... I've thought about building a BLOG site though. More for the fun of building the server than actually posting up content. :D Yeah, I'm a sick motherforker... :rockin:

    I joined twitter just so I could follow North Park Brewing so I could ask for his collaboration session beer he did with Stone.

    I started with Stone they said they couldn't give it out but that North Park was on Twitter and was known to give it out to people that followd him. So I signed, asked for it and he gave it to me.

    Why do people hate twitter and fb so much? I don't "tweet" but I use twitter to get updates and read ridiculous Charlie Sheen comments for entertainment. Just because some people overuse it and let us know every second of their boring a$$ life doesn't mean you have to follow those people. You can use it how you want to use it and only get the info you want.
