Twitter

I joined the twitter revolution a while ago, for those of you who are not in the know, twitter allows you to give short one-line updates throughout the day to friends and family. It allows people to always know what you're doing...at least when you twitter. Honestly, it's a neat thing in a lot of ways, but at the same time something doesn't sit well about it. I mean twitter is simply an updating service...much like the status updates on myspace or facebook but without the opportunity for further communication at any deeper level. I find myself checking my twitter feeds and being updated on people's lives, but not really communicating with them. Can this communication overload we have through twitter and facebook be sabotaging real communication? Just things I'm pondering as I struggle my way through my twittering experience. Simple Application: Don't let real human communication (face to face, or even on the phone-and not text messaging!) become obsolete!
