Twitter

OK, so I've finally joined the twitter generation and so far am rather liking it. Benefits are:

• It makes you think about what you are doing
• You make opinions about things to twitter about
• You feel connected to those around you
• You have a record of what you were doing during a day

The first day I joined I made a tweet about Richard Dawkins and shortly after recieved a message saying almightygod is now following you on Twitter!. Made me chuckle:

Hi, thejimmyg.

almightygod (almightygod) is now following your updates on Twitter.

Check out almightygod's profile here:

You may follow almightygod as well by clicking on the "follow" button.

Best,
Twitter

Features I still feel I'm missing though:

• The ability to tag tweets so people could just follow say my personal or techie tweets
• The ability for a tweet to become a blog post if it becomes too long
• Correct spelling errors in early tweets (perhaps with an icon saying the tweet had been changed)

Btw, twhirl is the best twitter client I've found so far (but it needs Air).
