more on Twitter....

I've been using Twitter more and more over the last few weeks, as a tool for staying in touch with web development stuff, as well as being a simple barometer for the collective web consciousness, it's hard to beat.
Seems like I'm not the only one who's getting evangelical about it, either.
This time next year, it'll be as ubiquitous as Facebook.

Facebook is good for keeping up with friends. But Twitter is better for meeting them.

Lelie, that's it. In a nutshell. Facebook seems to be about drawing a line around all the people you know know, mixed up with old acquaintances, randon schoolfriends, brief flings, that sort of thing...it just feels finite. With Twitter, you can monitor conversations, get a feel for how people communicate, follow them, send them messages...and it leads to something which expands your horizons. What's not to like?
