I'm there (@melisherman) and I use it a lot lately – along with thinking about various uses. As someone who designs software for a very specific audience (plant and process anyone?) it can be enough to simply design a good 3D equipment modeler. But I can’t help but want to see how things like twitter can be used to increase design collaboration and help reduce design process waste. Thus my earlier question regarding novel uses…

But I thoroughly enjoy the fact that I can chat/banter/debate with fellow practitioners like Russ Unger, Will Evans, Dave Malouf, Dan Brown, Mario Bourque, Livia Labate, Christina Wodtke etc etc at any time throughout the day. As well as speak to my wife about my day; let my Dad know what I'm up to; vent a little; organize a beer in the local pub with anyone who happens to be nearby; source staff for a project; or catch up with friends. Give it a try. Steve 2008/10/23 Melissa Sherman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Interested in finding out who's using Twitter and what for – (Personal updates? Reinforcing/building communities? Work related announcements?) and if anyone has found novel, possibly unintended, uses for the product. ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
