So mainstream media has caught onto "social networking" site Twitter, and everyone from Barbara Walters to Kerri-Anne Kennerly is happily filling airtime with talk of the "craze".
Critics will tell you that it’s boring, pointless, voyeuristic or just narcissistic.

Dina Lohan
Dina, mother of Lindsay, not only lives vicariously through her daughter, she also spends her days on the internet defending herself against "haters". But most entertainingly, she still doesn’t understand that there is a 140 character limit on tweets and thinks she is being censored. HA!
