Your tweets were a wonderland

Let's talk a little bit about Twitter, and celebrities who tweet. More especially, how those tweets can change the public's perception of the celebrity. But specifically, how John Mayer changed my mind about him, based on his 140-character comments.
I always thought he was an ass, hooking up and breaking up with female celebrities kinda willy nilly, not seeming to care too much about them. And I really just had a bad feeling about him. But then, I got a kick out of his sense of humor. And his pictures, bits of "wisdom," and antics made me smile or giggle.
Because he's clever. But I can't copy and paste any of his tweets, because Mayer quit his Twitter account today. John Mayer has become a Twitter quitter. And sadly, it seems that he stopped because he was done with his tour, and was heading back into the studio. So, John Mayer, the tour is over and you've got nothing to actively promote, so you're going to abandon your 3.7 million followers? That's just not cool.
Here's the story: According to the Associated Press, a spokesperson for Mayer said the timing was synched with the end of his Battle Studies Tour that wrapped Saturday in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Oh well. At least I still have Jeremy Piven, Wil Wheaton, The Fug Girls, Diablo Cody, Stephen Colbert, Seth MacFarlane, Rainn Wilson, the kids from Glee, Jon Favreau and Jimmy Fallon.
