"Lurkers, Stalkers, Creepers, you name it..... Twitter is their playground"

In the summer of 2009 I stopped fighting the "status update" battle and joined the wonderful world of Twitter. Of course I was one of those people who said "Twitter is stupid", "I don't get it, so you just put your business out there?", "That sounds like the perfect place for stalkers".

Despite my strong reservations, I gave in and joined (honestly it was peer pressure, all the cool kids where doing it, lol) Since I joined Twitter I have met some really cool folks, great tool for networking and relationship building. However there is another thing Twitter is great for, and thats STALKING.

Yes folks, in case you did not know, people actually use this social network to stalk each other! I know you are all shocked ( Not Really, I saw it coming) but it is happening everyday. Hence why I am writing this blog. I always hear the horror stories, from Facebook, Aim Statuses (Yea, people still use aim), MySpace (I know, shame on me but I had to add it to the list), and now Twitter! Nothing is sacred anymore!

Stalkers are using all their tools and getting to work! They follow you, and patiently wait until you say something that can be used against you. Don't they know is ONLY Twitter! Relax!

The Stalking game is out of control! Here are some of the type of stalking/lurking categories I have found:

1. The Ex Stalking: This is my fav! You are playing yourself, if you using twitter to find out what your ex is doing! You are going to get your feelings hurt! You are not with him/her, He/She is not into you! Please Move on! That is all!
2. Relationship Stalking: Seriously, if you don't trust the person you are involved with keep it moving and stop wasting your time! Do you really have to create a twitter account to monitor who they talk to? Furthermore, do you have to follow the people they talk to the most and comment? Like C'mon Son! If your significant other wants to be with you, he/she will give you the respect you deserve no matter what!
3. "I want to be with him/her" Stalking: This is a red flag! If you are getting to know someone twitter is not the place to get your information. Why dont you use this time to chill with the person and get to know they really are. Besides, the best way to get to know someone is through time not twitter!

Please share more categories, the horror stories, or funny stories, they all the same!
