<li>I don&#8217;t use twitter like a group chat! Ex Tweet: &#8220;@A @B @C @D LOL @Efff must be named Fuckasura <img src='http://prashanth.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  Lol <img src='http://prashanth.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> &#8221;</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t tweet about products which are #Fail. If you don&#8217;t like it, don&#8217;t give a damn about it. What&#8217;s the point in tweeting &#8220;iPad sucks&#8221; for 100 times &amp; making it trending! For record, I tweeted only once about iPad, that too I guess about that spoof ad.</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t participate in making some lame #hashtag trending. Ex: #Nityananda. For those who were part of it, what do you think you achieved by making that trending? All phirangis woke up to see Nityananda trending, they go search what&#8217;s it is about. You know what kind of impression they might have got about our culture? our nation?</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t tweet about #IPL (Seriously)</li>
<li>I don&#8217;t participate in RT &amp; win contests, let it be an iPod or a Mercedes car!</li>
<li>I know the difference between RT &amp; @Reply!</li>
<li>I&#8217;m on Twitter for valuable conversations which used to happen in early 2009 &amp; 2008. And all those folks who were adopted to that kind of Twitter aren&#8217;t active today. Because, the other kind of people outnumbered them in a large volume.</li>
</ol>
<p>When somebody ask me what Twitter does, I always say &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t do anything, it&#8217;s just a platform, you can use it any way you want to!&#8221;.</p>
<p>Well, this is my personal opinion, the way I wanted Twitter to be, I&#8217;m not enforcing my thoughts, you can go ahead &amp; use it the way *YOU* want it!</p>
<p>To conclude this little post, my handle on Twitter is <a href="http://twitter.com/hnprashanth" target="_self">@hnprashanth</a> <img src='http://prashanth.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Google Search for &#8220;prashanth&#8221; and you can see me in third place! First two results are about Tamil star Prashanth [DAMN!!] &amp; the third is mine <img src='http://prashanth.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  So effectively I&#8217;m the second most popular &#8220;Prashanth&#8221; on internet *right now*. Why I&#8217;m stressing on *right now* is, Google results are dynamic, they can change drastically at any point of time! I&#8217;m happy to get there since &#8220;Prashanth&#8221; is very common South Indian name.</p>
