Twitter is becoming more and more irrelevant unless you are interested in following some self-important 'celebrity'!

I found Twitter very useful when you I needed to report issues to City of Tshwane or follow up on a Takealot delivery. Even Telkom's social media is better than going through call centers. Also good for quick news and weather updates. Far from being irrelevant...

NEVER!!!

You should get MySpace.

Haha I missed that particular boat. Weirdly it's still sort of alive in a weird, surreal kind of afterlife kind of way.

You should get IRC

Can you say ICQ? Which apparently also has some weird post-Facebook afterlife.
