Micro blogging is usually a tidbit followed by a full sized article.
I'm not sure about twitter, but at least on
identi.ca I find the !/# tagging very handy.  There's enough people
following certain groups, that asking a question
can usually get an almost immediate response.  The quality of the
feedback is debatable.. but I find that handy.

I mainly use ident.ca/twitter to create my own custom RSS feeds.
follow this user for meego, this devel from meego,
this fan site...and create my meego RSS stream.

Follow FSF, RMS, and something else.. and create your Libre Software
stream..etc.

Anyways.. this is somewhat OT .. so I'll let everyone return to their
regularly schedule
penguin programs.
