[...] Habe ich zum ersten Mal während des Amoklaufs in Winnenden getestet. Was für ein Panoptikum! Man kann Twitter auf beliebige Keywords filtern, relevante Tweets fallen dann wie bei einem Wasserfall von oben nach unten. Ein perfektes Interface für Journalisten, weil man immer die aktuellsten Tweets im Blick hat. Kommentar von Paul Bradshaw: “Twitter auf Crack.” [...]

>>>However, in my mind, for ordinary people, there is no point for them to update what are they doing all the time<<< I agree wholeheartedly with Paul Bradshaw; I use Twitter to direct attention to interesting, exciting, useful sites, blogs, tips, youtube vids, and more.

I can’t quite convince myself that anyone would be interested in the fact that, say, I’m making myself a cup of tea, or that I am changing channels, or my socks for that matter.

Sadly, though, I have been – and might yet be – guilty of declaring my destination when I am about to tear myself away, even if it’s only to go to bed!

Oh, well, go well!

Twitterfall was so funny to watch when Gmail died last week, it was bemused and worried Tweet after another.

It’s a good tool to use, definitely, I’ll use it again for sure

Thanks – you’re missing the point a little, though, which is that Twitter isn’t necessarily for saying ‘what I am doing’ despite that line on Twitter itself. It’s for having conversations and sharing useful stuff, apart from various other things. It’s like saying there’s no point people using the telephone just for telling people what they’re doing.

Hi, I am a journalism student and just learned sth about the Twitter during the online class. In terms of using by journalists, I agree with you that the Twitter is an effective role to get the latest breaking news. For instance, during the Sichuan earthquake in China’s, word of it spread quickly from witnesses on the shaking ground via Twitter. However, in my mind, for ordinary people, there is no point for them to update what are they doing all the time.
