It's like a mini-blog, which I use for work. I find it's neat way to network with ppl of similar interests, and to get 'em and others to view stuff you produce online. Like visual or written stories. I'll see how it goes I guess. Thanks for the linking Steve. Catch you later. I kinda like Twitter though man. It's like a mini-blog, which I use for work.

It has a built-in public and private reply system. For American users, at least, it has SMS access as well. I am a pretty big twitter fan, but mostly because I use it to talk to friends and network within my industry and alert people to new posts on my blog. To call it anthing more than that is borderline irreponsible-- especially "journalism." If that's journalism, then every Livejournal deserves eight pulitzers. Each.
