Twitter

Sigh.

I guess if I was fifteen again and was fascinated by the daily activities of my friends, then Twitter would seem really nifty.

Out of principle, I will not "track my activities using Twitter for a few days".

A colleague speculates Twitter may be a push by cell phone companies to increase revenue. I wouldn't be surprised.

Libraries have lots of objectives and Twitter may help some libraries meet thier objectives.

Research libraries within government are just one type of library and offhand I don't see twitter as a technology that is worth pursing with limited resources, particularly when compared to RSS and improving Web content.
