When you get some friends hooked up on there it gets a lot better. Start tracking things with an instant messager and it becomes a living news ticker.

Knowing some things it can do is a good initial step in the direction of eventual progress. What I’d really like to see is the point of the damned thing. I can’t manage to describe it or find a description that really tackles what it’s for and why what it does could ever possibly matter. Also, how are twtr clients sensible when you can do everything a client does with almost any instant messaging program?

After just finishing James Gleick’s Faster quickly, I feel like I have some sort of problem with microupdates. I know I think I know I don’t really though.
