  1. !calgarybronies @starshine I still have no idea how this site works, so I just refresh this page every once in a while. Like, how is it that when I post something without a group tag someone I've never met responds in like a second? It's creeping me out.

    2. @rotation ... unlike Twitter, we HAVE a public timeline.

      1. @starshine Twitter has a public timeline. It's called the "Firehose". It's only available to (paying) devs though.

        1. @ceruleanspark Then, for all practical purposes, they don't.

          1. @starshine Trying to actually observe that timeline would probably make your brain collapse from all the stupidity and or spam anyway.

            1. @ceruleanspark ... so it's Twitter.

              1. @starshine It's also $360K a year. I cannot imagine paying that much money for the privilege of reading misspelled spamvertising and pictures of people's lunch.

                1. @ceruleanspark ... holy jesus, you have to be kidding.

    3. @rotation I'm totally ignorant of it too. Maybe they do? I just know that when you go to twitter.com you don't see anything resembling posts.

    4. @rotation 1000 tweets a second. That's a lot of marketing data.
