It seems everywhere we look twitter is in the news.  Even John McCain has it in the congressional record now that he tweeted thousands of people.  I gotta admit I am not 100% sure I get it.  You can check me on http://www.twitter.com/noeljerke.  I can see the angle of keeping a small group of friends and having a sort of shared “texting” area.  I can also see small working groups using it as a collaborative tool.  Maybe the sweet spot is there.  Right now I am following about 100 people and I just can’t keep up with it all.  I think I need to kick a few “abusers” out of my list that clog it up each day.  It will be interesting to see how this evolves.   BTW – trying very hard to not click on the shiny links from the young ladies saying that if I click I will get a free laptop like them.  Do people really click on those types of things?  I guess that is “twitter spam”.
