What is Twitter?

5 February 2007 1 views One Comment

It took me a while to figure out what Twitter is and what role it will play in my workday. But the answer dawned on me finally – and somewhat amusingly – at home tonight.

Twitter is asynchronous multicast IM.

Which I guess would make it AMIM.

I can leave a Twitter message and others can leave them for me, but they’re asynchronous like email, only without the deliverability issues of email.

Find me here on Twitter.
