    Yeah, if you're using it for personal use. It's a great way to stay in touch with the news and teams that you don't truly follow, but you still want to know the latest about them.

    I thought it was sorta like the part of facebook where u say what you are currently doing....why would you go for news and sports info on twitter??? ESPN and CNN (or something like that) would be better

    Well, I'd rather see a quick update and link than a huge article. It's much easier to browse my 'friends' updates and click on the articles/blogs that interest me.

    I mostly use it for soccer and Arsenal related things and I've already found a bunch of good bloggers so far.

    I went to dinner over the weekend with some friends and I felt like an outcast since I don't use Twitter or Facebook. There wasn't much conversation at the dinner table everyone was on their iPhone or Blackberry texting and checking updates. One guy took a picture of the menu, the restaurant, and the dish he ordered to let everyone know where he was and what he was about to consume. Very surreal experience.

    you get unverified news faster. some reporters tweet before they post it up (like an hour or two).

    it'll be great on draft day.

    I just invited a chick over to MySpace and Twittered all over her Facebook. She said it was Del.Icio.Us.

    Twitter will be down on draft day. The site is always down during big events.
