Why Twitter Needs to be Stopped
Of all the new communication tools to be introduced in the last ten years, there is none more devastating to society and culture than Twitter. It is by the nature of it's programming, forcing people to become self-indulgent, narcissistic, and insecure. Humans were not meant to communicate (or rather announce in global scale) in 140 character bursts. It is ineffective at conversation, advertising, and monetizing and extraordinary at turning people into self-centered jerks.
