Guide to Micro Blogging
Confused about all this Twitter business? Media Shift breaks down Twitter and micro blogging. (Or is it micro-blogging? Or microblogging?)"Most reviews of Twitter and similar services such as Jaiku are split between people who consider micro-blogging to be a breakthrough form of communication and people who think it’s an annoying distraction and the ultimate form of navel-gazing. The key to using Twitter is knowing which feeds will be useful to you and which ones will overwhelm you with too many posts."
I'm on the fence about microblogging. Keeping tabs on friends and family isn't all that interesting to me, but I do think microblogging can be quite useful for live blogging.
