Why Use Twitter?

This Twitter post from Guy Kawasaki came across my Twitter feeds recently:

19 Blogs You Should Bookmark Right Now:

I looked over the 19 folks cited in Kawasaki's post , liked what I saw, and decided to funnel a few of them into iGoogle and Google Reader to see what they serve up on a regular basis. This new set of reading has opened up many resources for folks doing projects here in the Lab and for me personally.

So, why use Twitter?

It's safe to say it's doubtful I'd have stumbled across some of these insightful bloggers without seeing Kawasaki's Twitter post.

I was very skeptical when I first started using Twitter. I nearly gave up a few times but instead decided to stick with it, to explore it. I've been using Twitter for over two years now and the folks I've subscribed to have served up some great resources. Invest some time into it and it might do the same for you.
