In the hands of a good writer, or someone who actually has something to say, Twitter would be very interesting. Oscar Wilde would have been the GOD of Twitter. Interestingly, in a way I've consigned a few people here to "Twitter Hell" already. I never read *anything* they write other than the first sentence or so that appears in Message View. And that's more than enough to remind me why they're in the Instant Next Key category. What's fascinating is to see -- even from the Message View "tweets" -- how freaked out some of them have gotten about having been dumped. "Hell hath no fury like a blowhard ignored." :-)
