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:

  1. somehow capturing the story of your life; or
  2. “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,
