@Champa, while I agree that Twitter is Great because of the necessity of brevity, I do not agree that anyone can maintain anonymity online. My experience has proven otherwise; someone sent me anonymous postings awhile back, and “experienced” friends were able to find this person in less than five minutes.

@Eric: I think one of the benefits of Twitter versus any other social media site is that firstly, the limitation of what you can say! On Facebook and the likes, people can go on and on. Via Twitter, it’s 140 character flat; no more no less. Also the privacy factor is fabulous with Twitter. It isn’t intrusive in the sense that there is no space for random information that you would post normally on mediums including Facebook. Twitter is safer because the anonymity factor is incredible!

@ Amanda _ I know exactly what you mean…I don’t think everyone needs to know what I had for dinner or what I have planned after breakfast, but it is nice to pass on good information and when doing that the url shortener is a help http://bit.ly/

Yes, Twitter really is NOT just about answering the question: “What are you doing?”
