to twitter ot not to twitter

So Matt cancelled his Twitter account. Too much noise, too much distraction, not enough "flow". With me, it's the opposite: I (almost) always want things happening around me. And twitter is unobtrusive enough - and meaningless enough - not to take it too serios. It just happens, and fades into the background.
What makes "musique d'ameublement" different from "muzak" is the fact that it's being played by real people - I would not want to read twitter timeline updates from A.L.I.C.E. or similar.
