			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been hearing that question more and more frequently these days.  People say, &#8220;Well, isn&#8217;t it the same as updating your <a href="http://www.facebook.com" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.facebook.com?referer=');">Facebook</a><a title="FaceBook" href="http://www.facebook.com" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.facebook.com?referer=');"> </a>status?&#8221;  And I kindly reply, &#8220;Well, no, not really.&#8221;  Then they ask me to explain it further and every time it just seems to get harder and harder to vocalize exactly what <a title="Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.twitter.com?referer=');">Twitter</a> is and exactly <strong>WHY</strong> it is so addicting.  Everyone&#8217;s in on it!   My mom even signed up for Twitter but she doesn&#8217;t know what the hell for, she just heard it was the &#8220;new thing.&#8221;  Hell, <a title="Telegraph" href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/technology/twitter/5038203/Jennifer-Aniston-ended-relationship-with-John-Mayer-because-of-his-Twitter-obsession.html" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/technology/twitter/5038203/Jennifer-Aniston-ended-relationship-with-John-Mayer-because-of-his-Twitter-obsession.html?referer=');">relationships are ending because of Twitter addictions</a>!!!</p>
<p>So when I found the following animation on YouTube, I thought I&#8217;d post it here so that anyone wondering what the fuss is all about can check it out.  For those of you already on the Twitter bandwagon, I hope you find this as funny as I did.</p>
