May the Twit be with you
I detest Twitter : I cannot understand the need to post an incessant stream of one-liners in the vain hope of:
- somehow capturing the story of your life; or
- “keeping in touch” with similarly occupied people
And as such I have avoided the temptation to sign up.
But I have seen the light … well, perhaps not. But I do agree that Twitter is the perfect platform for text commentary for sports.
Follow http://twitter.com/baggygreen for text commentary on Australia’s cricket games (from Cricinfo)
And while I’m grudgingly acknowledging that Twitter might occasionally be useful, I might as well mention Foamee – the social, collective conscience of beer debt – which also uses Twitter as it’s interface

Heh, glad you think it’s a useful application for Twitter!
Thanks,
