Attrition.org: We Twitter, Therefore We Suck

Well, we finally caved in. It's true, and we admit it. Twitter is the 
"next big thing" (tm), so, as of right this minute, we're all over it like 
smegma on d2d's upper lip. We are going to fully embrace this most awesome 
technology, much as we did cascading style sheets, PHP, and Windows Vista 
many, many moons ago. We seriously want to be on the cutting edge of the 
internet without having to resort to foolish publicity stunts, and as far 
as we can tell, every other user on teh webz is doing it, so... here we 
are.

Please realize that we aren't doing this just for ourselves. We're doing 
this for you, the faithful attrition reader who visits the site every 
other month (which used to be weekly until we stopped Data Loss, you 
jerks) to get a fill of yukks from the Going Postal section. We realize 
that in today's fast-moving world, people are really, REALLY busy and 
probably can't digest more than, like, 140 characters at a time, no matter 
how complex or important the message may actually be. It's a drain to have 
read and *think* through complex sentences, so we're completely changing 
our way of thinking.

Therefore, we now Twitter.
