It's Tuesday, November 24th, 11:20 a.m., and the class is abuzz as we are schooled in the finer points of creating a Twitter account. I created an account about one year ago, but as of yet have found little use for it. Now, as I am thoroughly involved in my Crecomm program, the usefulness become crystal clear.
Twitter as a messaging tool is a glimpse into the future as communication becomes more immediate and our lives become inextricably attached to it. There will likely be imitators and the idea will continue to evolve as programmers streamline the idea to make it better. Keeping up with this constantly changing face of communication has created a new field of Darwinism (though his theory can pretty much be applied to any subject). If the modern communicator does not choose to use these functions in his or her practice, they are likely not as "in the know" as the communicators that do.
Point me in the direction of the nearest iPhone, I will need to get on board...
