Although the twitter service has been around for a while I have not really gotten into it. In their words:
"Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?"
I can see the benefits of such a service and I must say it is phenomenally popular, so I will be signing up and checking out the service soon. Stay tuned for my updates about the service.
