Twitter is like navel-gazing with an electron-scanning microscope.

Heh, Joe, you do realize that if ego/geeks had electron-scanning microscopes, that would probably one of the most killer gadgets of all time?

My god, I'll take two. Make it four.

I think you're missing the point, Joe.

It's funny, all the Twitter love on Techmeme got me thinking this morning. Put me in a reflective/retrospective mood. I obviously blogged about it:

Agree/disagree?

I wouldn't disagree with you, Andrew -- the downtime is frustrating,
and I wouldn't be surprised if something came along and stole some of
Twitter's thunder (although both Pownce and Jaiku have tried but not
succeeded, as far as I can tell). It's really the phenomenon I'm
interested in, not so much the specific app.
