twitter feeds...bwa?

[gategrrl]

I'm seeing these more often on my flist. And I scratch my head at them. What's the point of all these tiny little updates that don't say anything? And they're all time-stamped, too.

Trying to parse them out. I guess it keeps the flist from getting flooded with miniposts?

You know, I seem to remember something that kept Twitter reposts from popping up on your flist. A Greasemonkey script, maybe?

I didn't bother looking into it at the time because only one person on my flist was having their daily Twitters reposted to their LJ's but that number has increased a lot. I'm all for people communicating in whatever way they want, but most of the time it reads like one half of a chat log and that's just doesn't feel like communication anymore...it feels more like spam.
