I’ve been on Twitter for 3 months now, and I’m liking it more and more.

I actually think that Twitter can be an art form, and I love to see the fragmented 140 character pieces of thoughts that float across my Twitter stream. There are even some sites popping up about Twitter Haikus.

A friend of mine (I believe this was you David) described Twitter as an e-hug :-), and I totally agree. It’s sort of like if you’re in one room of your house and you can hear people talking in the other room. Kind of comforting, especially for us folks who are web workers and work from home.

There are so many other reasons why Twitter has found a home in my daily online life–way too many to list here.

I think that anyone who finds Twitter addicting should just wait a month. I guarantee you will get tired of Twitter. It just isn’t useful or interesting enough to last, and I’m beginning to think it won’t survive more than a year.
