Twitter is one of the most popular Social Networking sites around today, after Facebook. One Tweet can contain up to 140 characters, so is very short.
My impression of the site is that it is like reading in staccato, with trivial information displayed in very short bursts. I found that I would be easily distracted and follow links, eventually wasting much valuable time on fruitless searches! I do not see it as being much use in an academic setting, and can see students doing as I did, and becoming led on wild goose chases after information that is not relevant to the task in hand....
