Hi everyone,

People have been asking me what I think about Twitter and why I offer the Twitter widget on the ipboast site.  Well, I have been messing around with Twitter and tweeting here and there trying to figure out a purpose for Twitter the last month and a half.  I think I finally figured it out.  Twitter will ultimately become a "real-time" search engine.  Since all the contents of Twitter are user generated, these tweets are real time inputs by the users of what is going on wherever they are.  For example, if there were an earthquake anywhere around the globe, and let's hope not, a Twitter user in the affected area would then tweet about the earthquake, since it is in real time, meanwhile, the fellow Twitter users would know faster than any News Service or any other Search Engine could report on the quake.  In addition, it is kind of interesting, I have been tweeting things of small importance to everyone else but are actually of huge importance to me.  The tweets are posted with a time stamp and will be a reminder, within the actual minutes of that special hour, day, month and year, of small things that made a part of my morning, afternoon, evening or day special and in real time.  Many years from now I will be able to go back and read back on these special memories.

I hope you all find another personal use for Twitter.
