Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow open access. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or external applications. While the service itself costs nothing to use, accessing it through SMS may incur phone service provider fees." Wikipedia 01/24/2010

Where are People Twittering? source: JimRaffel.com #72 Twitter from GraphExpo '08 A couple days ago I was reading my dead tree version of Wired magazine (someone has to keep the printers in this world working) and found an article that provided an answer to address my GraphExpo coverage dilemma by utilizing Twitter. While I do not agree with the premise of the article that it is time to kill your blog, I do see a way to make blogs more relevant when combined with Twitter.
