This is an aside titled 'Eating crow: Why Twitter is useful' dated 3/5/08

As you might have noticed, I’ve started to force myself to use Twitter to see if I can discover why people find it so compelling. Well I think I might just have hit it. I subscribed to Clay Shirky’s tweets since just today the UPS delivered his new book, Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations. Lo and behold, a few hours later I get this tweet from Shirky: “Getting ready for a talk tomorrow at New America Foundation in DC.” I had no idea and I’ll probably go now. Awesome.
