Censorship, who needs it?
to my dismay I could only find up-to-date tweets that were a little more couth than what I had expected, but today I found this, a list of his brightest thoughts. A best of. Tweets about Politics, Genetics and computers, you name it 50 has his own opinion on it.
My personal favorite is on Obama's approval rating. "Obamas ratings are down cause he didn't include pimpin and hoein in stimulus package. Good hoes would boost male moral and fix the recession".
It seems like a joke, but it’s completely serious. Most celebrities have people, some time teams of people, working on their social network sites like Facebook and twitter, but not 50.
I commend him for this, I think its great that he doesn’t care what people think, expressing his opinion however vulgar it may be. It makes him seem like a real person, we're only a tweet away from talking to the REAL 50 cent, not someone controlling his twitter site. It’s also great for a good laugh
To finish things off I’ll share my favorite viral video of the last 6 months, The beautiful woman, the beautiful woman, the rippin’ and the tearin’, the rippin’ and the tearin’

How much is too much?

How many of you have friends that update their facebook or twitter status once every 5 minutes? There is always at least one in every sub circle in the vast 'family' that is facebook where everytime you log on to curiously check what notifications you have or what photos you've been tagged in, you find a new update from said person/s filling your live feed with what they have been doing every minute of the day.
Living in the web 2.0 age is almost encouraging people to live their lives through their status or in 140 characters or less.
Is there a sort of celebrity status involved with updating your status every few minutes? Does fame and fortune come from a few hundred friends knowing exactly where you are at a certain point in the day or that you're eating a sandwich for lunch?

@P. Diddy
Granted, P.Diddy's computer monitor is probably the size of a wall and doubles as his cinema, but he's still got time to kill, so he tweets.
If he had Facebook he'd probably be that annoying friend whose status updates are paragraphs- but his computer's huge.
He thinks there's a lot of space he has to fill.
His tweets need to be entirely capitalised and exclaim a lot so that his monitor doesn't look so overwhelming and unnecessarily over-sized. P. Diddy's tweets are to scale with the equipment he composes them on.
P. Diddy's tweets dominate my homefeed. Now, whether this is a guy thing or not...
