An article on what to do with Twitter. Still haven't decided if it's a good idea or not, but other people seem fascinated.

A good introduction to twitter with excellent introductory advice. A good explanation of why some are so excited, and others say, "yeah, so what?" when taking a first look at twitter.

Very comprehensive really. I still don't think twitter is that groundbreaking, but it's still an interesting enough service.

Great Article!  This will answer the question "Ummmmmm. buy why again?" that frequently comes up about twitter.  It also teaches you how to use twitter as a marketing device.

If you’ve got a Blackberry, you should check out the Google Talk client and use it there. As if you needed another reason to fiddle with that thing in meetings.
