Yet another downfall of the Internet that is honestly very addictive.

Formspring is a site where people ask questions to specific people, either anonymously or with their identity revealed if they are a registered user. Honestly, it serves no purpose other than to satisfy curiosity or somewhat satiate one's boredom. However, I do find some joy in asking/answering questions, so fire away. (also yes this is a profile of the IRL me, whatcha gonna do about it)

Also, feel free to post your Formsprings, because I feel like asking people questions when slacking off.

why do we need websites dedicated to functionality that pre-existing websites already service?

Like twitter for example. What is twitter other than a wordpress account with a character limit?

Because people want to feel special about themselves without having to put in the effort involved with registering something like a Wordpress account. Twitter is one of those things that also telegraphs updates over things like text messages, so people can pretend to give a shit about people on the go.

As far as Formspring is concerned, it's useless, but boy is it addicting.
