I cant imagine the twitter being real, but since it has 27 thousand followers I have to ask.

http://twitter.com/#.../JohnFrusciante

Hi new follower
19 Sep"
Didn't even need to scroll down to find a tweet that makes it very obvious that it's not him.

He doesn't look like someone that would be active in social networking sites... let alone Twitter, which is like, the stupidest and most pointless one.

Yeah, I was looking at the tweets and for it became very obivous. But when i saw the follower count i became doubtfull

It's definitely not his twitter account.

Depends entirely on what you are tweeting about.

^^ What he said. Some celebrity Twitter users tweet using the text message function and they don't even interact with the audience. Sometimes it's just a RSS feed. Some do it right, though; but the use depends on who will be doing it, what for and what's their goal.

And Luuuucas, I recommend you to search before opening a new thread, as we discussed this a couple of times and I put a note on John's official website to let people know that @JohnFrusciante is not John's Twitter.

I guess you are right about twitter, Iva too. It's just the very... invasive nature of it that bothers me. It's one more step towards social media becoming a mirror of your real life, or an illusion of it, so I don't like it. But yeah, I guess it can be used constructively sometimes.

It's up to you how much you'll share, if you're sharing anything from your everyday life at all.
