…microblogging platform. You follow people and see their updates and they follow you and see yours. Some people use it almost like an instant messaging platform. Others drop nuggets of wisdom. Others use it to promote blogs, products, or businesses. It’s limited to 140 characters so it requires a little creativity to get thoughts composed. It’s also really good for sparking people’s interest and diverting it back to a full-blown discussion somewhere like Waggleroom.

It’s really up to you how you want to use it, but if I may offer an opinion, I think your extensive knowledge of professional golf and grasp on current events would make for some interesting and informative tweets.

The same could be said for most of the regular Waggleroom contributors.

When you go to your Twitter home, you’ll see messages from all the people you follow. You can direct messages at specific Twitterers by including the user name preceded by an @. Other followers will still see them, but it brings a little order to the chaos.
