Do you twitter?

Twitter is for staying in touch and keeping up with friends no matter where you are or what you’re doing.  This is a clever tool, a bit like messenger but you can access it wherever you are, online.

I came across it when doing some researchs on new web trends. Some may see it as the ultimate stalking tool but it has a lot to offer. Twitter is at its early stage but is already overtaking blog in the heart of the early adopter.

What are the benefits of twitter?
- One of the key feature I think is free remote access tool, offering a wide range of options (text messages, Google talk, email) so you can keep your community up to date with what is happening in your life (no matter how boring or great your life is).
- It DOES really take only 5mn to register and the registration process is not too invasive
- You can integrate your status on your website or your blog (you can tell I am not really good at this as my twitter status is not yet on this blog)
- Latest and by far coolest feature, you can update twitter from your mobile phone.
- Unlike the other kids on the block you have complete control and a computer is not necessary. You can also open your twitter status to selected people.

So far Twitter really is a cool widget to add to your web favorites tools. What will be the future? Not sure I have no crystal ball, but I can see it being used by savvy brands to increase customer loyalty and start creating VIP status.

Otherwise it will still be used by Internet geeks like me for fun
