    I use Twitter a lot and I was used to clicking on the new threads as they were posted. The last posting from Coin Talk on Twitter was on 1/6/2017. I know this topic will not interest most, but I miss them.

    I thought twitter was for politics, ie the twitterer in chief. I don't have twitter, facebook, snapcrap, kik or any other newfangled anti-social behavioural defecations.

    Twitter allows you to block any subject you don't care about. Easy to filter the crap out and follow only subjects you care about. Coin Talk would show the latest post and with one click, your in the website.

    Yup and CT has over 5000 followers. Can you forward this to the proper administrators.

    I'm quite sure Peter is already aware of it since he is the one and only person who could have set it up to begin with. And if he's quit or stopped using Twitter for CT, then he has consciously made that decision to do so.

    I have a phone, I use it for phone calls. And I use the internet, on this here thing called a laptop. (My pnone is CAPABLE of accessing the internet, but I turned that feature off. Surfing the net on a two and a half inch screen is silly.)

    No Twitter here. Or Facebook, or any other social media.

    Happened to agree with your old man. Still have my own flip phone. You know what they say if it's not broken why fix it. Smart phone is the phone companies way of getting more money out of you each month. Don't tweet don't face a phone is for talking with someone else. A smart phone doesn't necessarily make you smarter.And think about it if you have a smart phone. When that phone is on and powered up, big brother is always watching you. Some of the old-timers will remember what A CB is. Still have a couple. Try using that smart phones when the power is out in the cell towers are down. Good luck with that phone. When the skip is on, I've talked to people around the world on my CB.:headphone::blackalien:
