Let me start by saying that there are many things that I love about Twitter. I love the instant connectivity, how it brings me news right away, as the news happens. I love how I can find and read so many different articles that I probably would have missed if I hadn’t been on Twitter.

Having said that, there are a few things on both Twitter and Twitter that annoy me. These are not impediments to me in any way, these things are just annoying more than anything else.

Are here:

• Marketing bots. These are people who are constantly sending affiliate links to whatever they are affiliated with. The big fad right now seems to be some kind of tooth whitening paste. It used to be getting 16,000 followers in 90 days, then something about earning $125 a day guaranteed, and something else equally annoying. I’m not saying you can’t sell things on Twitter, I’m saying don’t make commercial messages your sole purpose for being on Twitter. If you buy something from one of these marketing robots, STOP IT. You are just encouraging the next bot to try harder. Of course, I have the option to unfollow, which I usually do, but it’s still annoying.
• robot porn. What can I say about porn bots? Well, for one thing, they’re annoying. I really don’t need someone’s inappropriate, job-unsafe image filling my screen and telling me to go see their naughty pics somewhere.
• Quote bots. I love inspirational quotes as much as anyone, but do you really have nothing more to say? Are you so uninteresting? I’m digressing
• The new next/next interface. I thought about giving it some time to see if I could get used to it or see if maybe I could grow to love it, but no. I don’t like the new interface and I don’t think I’ll change my mind until the next version of the interface is released.
• Facebook games Those annoying games like the Mafia game, the Spymaster game, all that crap that makes the Facebook experience suck more and more every day has come to Twitter. I hate those games on FB and I hate them more on Twitter.
• By clicking on multiple links. I tweeted about this the other day. I hate having to click a link, that makes me click a link to click another link to read the full article. Just link to dang article! Stop trying to mess with Digg!

There are a few more things, but I have already advanced a while on this.
