I figured it would be something silly that I'd lose interest, but I'm finding it strangely addictive.... probably because it is a bunch of random but social non-sequiturs. But right now all of my "friends" are people I don't know personally except by reading their blogs, listening to their podcasts, or watching their screencasts. That's OK, because they are all smart, interesting, funny or some combination of all three... so their twitterpations are usually amusing. But I'm also hoping to convince some folks I know personally to try it out as well. But its a hard sell. Most of the folks I know around here, western PA, and of my age (low 40s) don't/won't use IM, and Twitter is like a random, public IM. But we'll see.
