Are they celebs? I know you roll with the stars.
a couple of them are... mike gordon and stephen fry.
what is twitter? i dont get it?
i dont even get what blogging is..
twitter is microblogging in 160 characters or less. why 160? that's the maximum length of an SMS message. generally, most tweets answer the question "what are you doing?" but it can be used for so much more. phish uses it to announce shows and post show setlists in real time. stephen fry likes to tweet about what he's doing. software developers use it to connect with their users. i use it to talk to my friends and let them know what's going on in my life.
as for blogging... blog is short for weblog and it's basically a journal-based public posting. high end business people (upper management) typically uses it to discuss their vision, the company mission, new developments, and to gain input from stockholders, employees, and customers. most people use it as a public diary or rant page.
yes, a lot of these things have been included in popular social networking sites like facebook and myspace. in fact, facebook's status updates were copied from twitter, as is their new @mentions feature. alright, enough typing.
