Shitter (shit + Twitter)

Twitter is an American microblogging and social networking service. Some people who don’t like Twitter have nicknamed it “Shitter” (shit + Twitter).

“Twitter? More like Shitter” was posted on Twitter by SkeleTony on February 14, 2007. “thinks with the uptime (and lack thereof), Twitter should really be called Shitter” was posted on Twitter by Miles Burke on May 15, 2007.
