Thanks for the post! if you feel that 140 characters aren't enough - try Jumbotweet to write longer twitter messages. I find that it helps skip the "superficial tweets" symptom you're describing!

Microblogging is a web service that allows the subscriber to broadcast short messages to other subscribers of the service. Microblogging is a growingly popular technology for lightweight interaction over the Internet. Indeed, for now, Twitter appears to be winning the microblogging arms race. With the popularity to Twitter and other Microblogging tools, we should expect to see a flurry of simliar tools in near future.

End every tweet on a spiritual note.
"PTL", or, "Thank you Jesus!" for the good ones, and
"Boo Satan!" for the bad ones.

Use Christian jargon and buzzwords.
"Is feeling things in the spiritual that will come to fruition in the physical for mighty blessings."
"is blessed and highly favoured and lifting up praise and hallelujahs."

(if you practice it)Speak in tongues.
"Shabba wonka bonka bonga!"

Quote the pastor's message from Sunday and Retweet to him on how awesome it was.

Reference how much time you've spent at church recently and all the "extra-curricular" stuff you're doing. You know, because you're so holy.

There's so many. AWESOME blog by the way!!

etc...

Worse than that is when Christians pray. Talk about holy sounding! And reading their Bibles out loud? Forget it! Holy rolling!

What about the personal J.C. Tweet that models for others how you have a relationship with Jesus, even on Twitter…

@Jesus U R da man. I'll stop asking you to be my co-pilot and just hand over the engine keys to you.

Omigosh…I just found a perfect new job for me. I could GHOST TWEET for musicians. This is absolutely brilliant. Now how do I advertise my services? Maybe you could write about how to GHOST TWEET for Christian musicians on your next post.

Brilliant stuff. Whenever I tweet, I want to write weird and awkward things like "I just picked my nose" or "Yup, stepped in dog poop again." But I don't think the world needs to know about that sort of thing, yet I find it so darn humorous.

Instead, I just got for whatever's on my mind, be it of God or of something else.

Hilarious! And thanks – seriously – for taking time to give a short explaination of what Twitter is. I'm clued in now, but one thing that drives me CRAZY is people talking about something and assuming that everyone knows about it.
(But I guess I can thank those Sprint commercials for giving people like me a heads up! If only I knew how to ask about things like Pandora without feeling like a dork! Pandora is awesome for playing music online, by the way. I guess all things do 'work together for good'…does that count for my 14%?)

Twitter. Just don't get the appeal. I like the Despair.com t-shirt that has Twitter as the intersection of Narcissism, Stalking and ADHD.

wv – dumno – perfect for Twitter! Am I dumno I just don't get the appeal of Twitter.
