If you follow comedians, it's fast quips.

For sports, it's IMMEDIATE updates (like Rondo's injury) so you don't have to wait for an entire story to be written.

If you follow idiots, you get a lot of bad tweets. If you follow the right people, you get great, fast news that you can look up later if you're interested.

Hashtags can either be brief elaborations on brief posts or the Twitter version of a subject heading. Kobe here used two of them to get the message "we didn't hire a nanny" and "don't be a dick, respect mothers" across with a minimum of words. They are also great for jokes, as a hashtag can completely contradict the content of a Tweet, bringing delight to the reader.

wow thanks for the explanation that clears it up, still dont get its purpose but I guess if you want to be on top of certain things its a great tool.

For famous people its a way to connect with fans. For reporters, its news. For nobodies, its an attempt to boost self esteem by seeing how many followers you can get. I have an account solely for fantasy sports news.

So true. Sort of like those people on Facebook who have like 3000 friends.

I use it to get one liners from Colbert, or see the odd nude picture posted by Monica Bellucci. That's about it.

It's amazing, Kobe's twitter has given the OP's life new meaning and fulfillment.

Also, I predicted this was the main reason why he made a public twitter account.
