Love-hate relationship with Twitter
Singer John Mayer has mixed feelings about Twitter. In a recent interview with Eonline.com, Jennifer Aniston’s ex-boyfriend called the social networking site “stupid,” which is interesting considering he has a Twitter account with more than 291,000 followers.
Here is a recent tweet (Twitter message) from the Grammy Award winner:”You ever tweet something and then feel compelled to spend the letters you have left? I mean, have you? Seriously? So yah. That’s all.”
Mayer may not help being that profound but other celebrities apparently do. According to the New York Times, some such as the rapper 50 Cent, are using ghost writers for their tweets. Politicians, including former presidential candidate Ron Paul, also have had help maintaining their presence on line.
“Britney Spears recently advertised for someone to help, among other things, create content for Twitter and Facebook,” according to the Times. “Kanye West recently told New York magazine that he has hired two people to update his blog.”
