Anyone here use Twitter at all?
I'm working on a few things and I'm curious as to how many cachers use it.

I've never used it because

I don't think anyone would be very

interested in my day-to-day thoughts and

activities. Besides, I don't think I could

write sentences that short!

Think of it as webified SMS

Useless, but at the same time it can become addictive............

Signed up and "follow" Cali from geekbrief.tv and Sonny/Sandy from Podcacher.

To be honest it's only as interesting as the people you choose to follow. Most I see Sonny doing is complaining about boring meetings.
Cali occasionally has some interesting tech comments.

It's really a bit like stalking someone, somewhat disturbing.

I'm following Stephen Fry and he's filming a show in the Amazon right now and he posts some interesting stuff, but yes, it does depend who you follow as to what you get back.......

I am on twitter.

I only follow a few people (mainly family) but have been surprised at who has decided to follow me.

I am looking at using it as a delivery mechanisim for new caches or for when someone logs a cache you are watching/own

Just playing right now... and seeing what can be done with the format.

Blackberry push email rules

Well IMAP is more or less instantaneous too for that matter.

As do I, I'm just being facetious

How did you go with your delivery method Craigrat? Sounds like it could be good
