twitter

Have you heard about twitter? Evidently, it's all the rage -- you write 140 words or less about what you're doing right this minute -- just a short update you can do 20-30 times a day. Part cyber-social experiment, part zen introspection, part id-indulgent disclosure. Newman is doing it. Montoya is doing it. Even Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards and the UN Secretary-General are doing it!

Newm forwarded me an interesting article that I thought presented a very intelligent view of it: http://www.slate.com/id/2163861?nav=ais...

At this point, I think I'll be watching this one (and not with great frequency or interest!) from the sidelines... but maybe we'll find out what YOU are doing right now...?

Come on, Jim...all the COOL kids are doing it.

I actually made an account last night, saw it on Montoya's blog and had never heard of it before. Seems interesting, if for no other reason that is seems to be more voyeristic than blogging and less so than a 24/7 webcam feed.
