Twitter Tech

On Twitter:

I’ve heard that blogging breaks the barriers between Author and Audience. Well, Twitter breaks the barrier between blogger and commenter. It’s group instant messaging or microblogging for your phone or on the web. Whenever Stick’s dad asks me about a tech buzzword, I make an offline comparision and end with “Like one of those, but faster.” Slower offline Twitter would be, um, talking.

Do you use Twitter? Do you like it, or find it annoying?

I should admit that even though it’s cool and cyberpunk, I  don’t have
Twitter updates going directly to my phone unless they’re specifically
targeted to me. It would be a cool future feature if we could tag
tweets as high-priority, so I could get news without a constant buzz of
“@somebody yeah lol” on my phone.
