Maybe There's Something to Twitter

This Wired essay on Twitter is an interesting read. It's the first I've seen that really gives a sense of what Twitter might be good for, besides just being an outlet for narcissists and a tool for voyeurs. I'm still not ready to sign up, but the example of using it at work when co-workers are scattered intrigues me, especially given my impending move.

Jason:

Right... Come up with a way to justify satisfying that narcissistic streak for "work" purposes!

There is a difference between narcissism, and being obsessive-compulsive + quietly amused and even a little disturbed that anyone cares enough to look.

And it can keep the colleagues apprised of the births and such.

Wow what a comprehensive tool!
