It's become a ubiquitous presence. The marketing/networking tool for all users. Everyone today seems to be flocking to Twitter.
Not only are politicos Twittering in DC, but actors are Twittering their fans now.
And, of course, writers Twitter. What writer could resist trying to boil their thoughts down to 140 characters? It's not only a marketing method, it's a professional challenge.
Not only that, but Facebook is redesigning its site to include "Twitter-like real-time chatter." (Just what we need! Even more Twitter!)
I rather like this dour take on how people should use Twitter as more than a way to simply spit out whatever random thought crosses their mind ("I love split pea soup!") or relentlessly tweet about themselves ("I'm an SEO genius!").
And, then there's this hilarious bit from Jon Stewart about Twitter. (Maybe we all need to take a moment, put down our handheld devices and step away from our keyboards. And just enjoy the silence.)
