Occasionally some people get a little carried away with their sense of self-importance. You know the type, before the emergence of social media they used to be contained to Friday night drinks at the pub or at a friend's dinner party. Their story is always a little bit better, their experience more scary/funny/exciting/interesting.
Social media has given people a global platform with which to espouse their views on the world. A few years ago, blogs gave rise to the phenomenon of "Citizen Journalism" where the opinions of those who had something to say could be viewed (potentially) by millions. More recently, corporate writers have muscled into the realm of blogging and hobbists have moved towards Twitter to declare pronouncements of what they are doing, what others are doing and how it should be done better.
Thankfully, http://tweetingtoohard.com/ is giving the self-important the recognition they deserve!
Check it out and hope you don't make the list.
