I'm so excited to see Jeff's twitters (or is it tweets?).

Computer jargon sounds so dirty. . .

I won't be silent much longer if BB & CBS continues with the BS as it pertains to my exit. I WANTED TO LEAVE!!! Not a meltdown.

I actually hope he wins, just to prove to everyone that I was right. He should have gone when I was FakeHOH. Go Russell!

Ugh! I'm soooo done with everyone being too intimidated to put Russell up. Grow a pair! or he will win the entire game...

She'll get her spanking. One way or another.
I was hoping once she was gone, she'd actually be gone. Sigh

according to Allison G, all Chima's BB related media releases (including Tweets) but be cleared by CBS because she's under contract with them for a year.

Dang I am still stuck back in the old BB days. The days when the HG's had no contact with the outside world. I think if Nicole had the ability to Tweet back in season 2 she would have been able to assure her husband that she loved him and nothing happened with Will.. She would not have had to beg BB for Xanax every night, the confines of the house would not have driven her just about crazy... I am not so sure that I like this Tweeting stuff... But I know I am an old fart and still make my kids wear an analog watch.

I don't see tweeting as having any more contact with the outside world than the cameras that are already in the house. BB HGs are always putting their thoughts out there and if people wanted to know what those thoughts were, they tuned in to the show and/or got the live feeds. Now they can also sign up for the tweets or read message boards like this one that posts the tweets.

It's still just a message-in-a-bottle type of contact whether it's a voice on video (like in the olden days) or words in a tweet (like in our more technologically advanced present).

JMO...

That does bring up one question, though. Do we know if the HOHs have any say over who can or cannot receive his tweets?

Sanfran - the HOH Twitter account seems to allow all followers without approval, so anyone can receive those tweets.

Individual HOHs wouldn't be able to control that since it's just one Twitter account.

Was that the question? I'm easily confused these days. lol

Ya'll are welcome!
I'm channeling my inner Southern Girl...Bama raised.
I'm jazzed that he really seems to care for Jordan but I'm so very disappointed in how they've changed with power.

purch I don't think anyone could play BB and remain all kind and sweet and whatnot. Unless they are evicted early in the game. At this point you have to start playing the game and getting your hands dirty so to speak.

I liked them from day 1 and that won't change. I get frustrated with both at times but I get that they are flawed.

Wendy, you're right of course. I got caught up in the rose tinted glasses crowd. Going thru the various stages of grief now.

San Fran, while you are absolutely correct, I think that for the HG, being able to Tweet seems more like something that will be read. I think even the ones who have watched live feeds in the past, still don't really grasp just how many people are watching, taking note of what they say and that their families WILL be up to date on them.. I know in past years so many of them who got to write an HOH blog would be incredulous when told that lots of people read the blogs, and they would say their parents would never be able to find it.. but of course they do find it all.

So maybe a perceived difference.

That explains it, Bonzacat...thanks! I was just wondering if the HOH got to direct tweets to anyone in particular....since they don't, I guess it really is not much different than talking to the camera.

"See I am just not technologically advanced."

Me neither - I'm tweet ignorant. I just don't get all the excitement about tweeting (it even sounds annoying!). Then again I don't use a cell phone, I don't text, and I really don't care if Sherri Shepherd on "The View" is at the mall buying shoes in the afternoon! LOL

Is that who Precious & Romeo follow?? :-)

I'm tweet ignorant as well. I survived w/o Myspace or IM, why not tweets?

I've even officially given DD my cell phone when she started college last year. I was supposed to get a family plan for myself but never bothered. My other DD & DH tend to ignore the differences in time/rates/costs, so they get to pay for their own phone cards only!

I think the extend of my hi-tech toy will stop at having a laptop in the near future. DVR is rather nice though. .. ..
