Turns out there's a video explaining Twitter and what's so good about it. One thing that's pretty clear, Twitter is much different than blogging - it's more like microblogging but it's also a way to respond to situation is real time in a way that's not possible to do with a regular blog.
For example, at the SXSW conference in Austin currently going on right now there was a session earlier today with Mort Zuckerberg who was being interviewed by Sarah Lacy -see the Zuckerberg-Lacy interview @ SXSW: Sarah's not a Geek post on Master of 500 hats for more details.
My point - while the interview was going on the entire "Twittersphere" present at the session interacted in real time an expressed extreme displeasure with Sarah Lacy's interviewing skills ... while the interview was going on!
Now here's the video I spoke about earlier - just to give you an idea of what Twitter is for many people who "get it".
