"What does impress you about 100,000 tweets, 100,000 times stupidities in 140 characters?" the legendary director told reporters when asked about the importance of Twitter and other social media in today's society. Herzog said he developed an aversion to social media and other forms of new technology and at one point did not switch his cell phone on for a year.
