Twitter

Twitter is an interesting social network. Its genius is in its restrictions it places on its users. They can only post short messages and that is all.

I think it is a great tool as it allows you to make quick observations about what you experience in the your day to day life. It also allows you to get a message out to a group of people quickly.

Twitter is different from blogging because of frequency. Some people might 'tweet' 50 times a day, however someone would not post on their blog 50 times a day. They both are opinionated outlets for their authors, which makes them similar.
