Also, because of the close attention that people pay to Twitter (many respond back nearly instantly), it's a great way to interact with folks you might not get a response back from any other way! In other words, the sense of online community has been enhanced, in my opinion.

Certainly it's primarily a community. It is also a medium. It's actually also a massive human search engine - I ask a question and my community of friends responds. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see how they monetize this thing....perhaps they already are (market research?). Follow me here: http://www.twitter.com/corbett Twitter is many many things.

It seemed like a crazy fad to me, so i didn't pay too much attention. Then, I started following Nick's entrepreneurial adventurers through his blogs... and I got infected by Twitter! lol I use it mostly to communicate with my youth group, and it's working VERY well. Thanks, Nick!! =D I think I first heard of Twitter last year, while following MacWorld’s coverage. It seemed like a crazy fad to me, so i didn’t pay too much attention.
