Polycount is now on Twitter - www.twitter.com/polycount
We've set this up for a few reasons. Primarily to communicate with the community in a more informal manner. Contest announcements, staff updates, give-aways, etc. etc. Secondly, it's a great way for us to talk to you guys if the server ever goes down - which it will!
Whaaaaaaaat?
We're going to start private testing Polycount.com some time in the first week over November which means the launch of the new site is only a few weeks away. During this transition we're going to have some planned down-time.
So if you're a Twitter user - follow-us! You might even gain access to the private testing of the new site :poly121:
If you're not a Twitter user but a fan of Polycount, that's good too! Bookmark the Polycount Twitter page and check it periodically. You don't have to be a member to visit our Twitter page.

Certainly! And every time one of the editors takes a shit too!
Nah, pretty much all the reasons we've made it were stated in the OP
and like kwakkie said...plus you can "skip that step"
if you're not following, you're in the fucking dark.
do it
is nothing sacred?

just an fyi
i don't really post or follow anyone, but this is convenient for things like polycount
Older versions of TwitterFox (what echofon used to be before they uglified it) are much nicer, IMO. You can get it here: http://www.onlinedown.com/detail/20770.htm

That's kind of weird.

What the chickens is all that twitter hype about? That service (as far as I can seem to grasp it) does not make any sense to me at all. To me it is at best... I don't know, useless?
Is there some hip shit that I don't get or am I really overlooking something about twitter? Can anyone please explain it to me?
but, 107 followers now. yay
I was following Buy.com for the same reason (to get tweets on their deals). Then the woman in charge of their twitter notices decided to put her own personal tweets on there to. They seemed to really missed the purpose
ps: hope the new site goes well and is as easy to browse as this one
Forum's gonna be pwnt at one point or another and this is a way for them to keep contact and spread the news to us. As he said in the first post.
Think of it as an emergency broadcast service.
Twitter search tool is also a great way to see what people think about certain product or software.
