Skip Twitter, and just get the real thing: http://shockandyawn.com

Brad Luttrell did not get a Twitter.

Shock and Yawn did, and there is a difference. I still think it’s dumb for just friends. I still don’t understand why I would have one for myself, unless I was shamelessly promoting something (which I am).

I can’t message people individually, everything is public, you have to pay for the larger accounts and it’s only 140 characters.

So far I’m completely unimpressed with Twitter. But, if that’s what can help make my Web site more successful, so be it. And that’s the reasoning behind making this guy. I basically just took a lame, regular Twitter bird and traced him, gave him some headphones, made him fatter and gave him smaller wings (which would likely not be functional).

So go ahead, follow that bird: @shockandyawn
