Ayu has a Twitter now?!

[rakeru]

I feel like she'd be a spammer on Twitter. Just posting stuff all the time. Anyway, I'm going to check right now.

I already have a Twitter account, trying to follow her, but I'm also following Max Matsuura himself, Mika Noguchi, and all kinds of others, including airlines and computer/technology-related companies...

It is a live talk about the album that will last about an hour.

Ayu was on it during NEXT LEVEL.

It's in the Schedule thread in the Music News Forum.

^thanku ^_^

Funny, because I wondered about Ayu getting a Twitter account. And seriously considered getting one just to follow her. XDD

[kirei_ayumi]

ayu having a twitter would be awesome, I'd just stalk all day

[Bigtop]

We have to be careful if Ayu ever has a Twitter account - we're not supposed to bug her! It's just going to irritate her, and it would be in a similar fashion if you do it to Max Matsuura, Mika Noguchi, Oprah Winfrey, the United States CDC, real companies, etc.

his is a great news

I'm following tons of j-musicians on twitter (and have had plenty of short conversations with producer Tsutchie), my "following" list is a who's who of j-musicians using the service (and it's funny, they have less followers than you'd expect since twitter just hasn't really caught on yet over there, not compared to the USA anyway)... having Ayu be part of that list would just be so awesome.

[♥Rain]

that'd be really cool

[ohsixthirty]

hrmm, you know i never use twitter, but if i could follow all my jpop musicians it would be so worthwhile.

but as i was typing that i realized i wouldn't be able to read and understand their posts anyway.

[Delirium-Zer0]

Yeah, even if you've learned japanese, they get pretty casual on there.

The japanese speakers who tweet are so lucky though, you can say WAY more with 140 japanese characters than 140 english ones.

oh i feel so left out!

I read quickly through the letters on the flight down to London, and we skimmed the text of the letters outside the hotel to be sure that the content was not inappropriate.

The reason I remember that letter, is because your letter was quite different from the other letters... and there were people in London who thought that your letter, or part of it sould not be included in the book.

Edit: Hmm, you deleted all your posts truehappiness? I did not double post xD

Nah, only my traveling companion from norway, and zoomzoom. But, if we found content that was not entirely appropriate, we asked the rest of the guys outside the hotel if we were to leave it in the book or not. There was not much inappropriate, only 2-3 letters, plus a few that came at the very end without being controlled by zoomzoom.

^^i agree. but don't sweat it. it's still somewhat anonymous. but i guess it really doesn't make much difference... but in the end the important thing is that ayu has your letter and that's what counts!

also, Maxker shouldn't be completely bashed. he meant well skimming through the letters. what if there really was something inappropriate. i would've felt so sorry for ayu and it would've made us international fans look really bad.

It was not as if we read those letters out loud for the other fans in London, only excerpts of what was inappropriate. And with inappropriate, I mean things like mentioning AHS (downloads), say they will kill certain people or call her nasty things due to lack of gigs outside of Asia ect. Fortunately there were not many letters that came in this category ^^

I would not be responsible for giving Ayu something with that type of content. As you say jean-baptiste, it would've made us look really bad and disrespectful.

I've been skimming these posts, and I'm wondering, when/how will we know what ayu's twitter will be named?
Ayumihamasaki or something?
I'm just afraid of imposters, haha~!
I'd love to ask Ayu some questions!
