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…

Melissa,

You'll find me @docbaty - and my only recommendation would be to try twitter 
(if you haven't already) and see what *you* get out of it, since it seems to be 
different for everybody.

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

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.
