Twitter

OK so I started a Twitter account. Not impressed with it, but it serves its function well. It lets you chronicle you life in little bits, and allows news to spread instantly and to everyone. Using Twitter to have an in-class discussion, I found it easy to respond to others tweets and my only issues is perhaps the limit on characters. However I can't blame the creators as no one likes to read a wall of text, would make twitter no a micro blogging kind of site,but a regular old Blogging site.
If you are really interested in keeping up with certain people, without really wanting to spend time looking deep into their lives, Twitter is good for you. I felt its better than BB discussion board, although I don't honestly remember using BB discussion board. BB is not reliable anyways, but its not as instant and doesn't have the presentation Twitter has. So overall I'm still not loving Twitter because I find it dumb to let people know the little things occurring throughout the day.
