I Don't Get It

I just don't understand teenagers anymore. :/

Twitter and last.fm are two things in this thread that still confound me.

I had a hard time figuring out tumblr, but I think I got it now.

What's not to get about facebook? I mean i rarely ever use it and i loathe all the apps there, but it's not exactly hard to understand what it's about and why people use it.

I say "I don't get it" every now and then, but only when people make jokes or what appear to be jokes and I don't get the joke. Sadly this happens often.

I don't know of any sites that I don't 'get', although I do think some sites are stupid and/or pointless.

I understand Tumblr more than Twitter. Tumblr is just like a blog/social network mash-up. It's about easily sharing all kinds of media with others.

Twitter is just weird to me. I can see how its simplicity has a lot of applications for different people, but I (personally) can accomplish the same kind of stuff with my Facebook. I think it's just not for me.

I understand Tumblr less than Twitter. Why do I want to "follow you" when all everyone does is repost pictures and stuff other people post? I thought reposts were a bad thing.

It's not that I don't "get" Twitter, but more that I just don't care. I have a twitter account, but it seems like EVERYTHING that anyone I'm following says on Twitter is word-for-word what they also post on their wall in FB.

Redundant. So I stopped looking at it like a year ago.

Also, I can understand the appeal of last.fm . . . but I haven't bothered jumping on that bandwagon yet. I should. I should. But . . . there are too many other internet-y things to pay attention to.

Now that Myspace music is dying, I'm surprised facebook hasn't bothered trying to make improvements to allow bands better and more user friendly features. I tried to set up a music site for my band on fb and it somehow ended up converting to a regular page. It WAS a fb MUSIC page at one point. And because you can't actually CANCEL fb profiles (so that I could cancel and start over from scratch) it's stuck in limbo. There's also no way to contact fb to say "hey, convert this back to a MUSIC page, idiot."

I'm ranting off topic. Sorry.

It's not that I don't get them, it's just that I don't like them and every time I see content from them I weep for our future.
