The bigger question you should be asking yourself is, "Why do I care what a random blogger (and not even a good one at that) thinks about Twitter (or anything else. But that's a whole other issue)?" The answer is simplistically simple: the nature of social media is to learn from others.

Consider this - Twitter is

* searchable content
* a series of micro impressions
* a presence tool
* a social network
* an information hub
* an idea exchange
* always "on"
* quick, short, and not always on the mark
* sound bites where you provide the context
* and more... (feel free to add)

As the amount of followers you have on Twitter increases, you might find yourself dealing with an increase in Twitter spam. Twitter spam derives from people who take advantage of you following them by sending you unwanted direct messages or merely by following you with the express intent of upping their follower count (meaning, they have no sincere interest in your tweets).

A twibe is a group of Twitter users interested in a common topic who would like to be able to communicate with each other. On each twibe's page, there is a list of twibe members. There is also a tweet stream that lists tweets from twibe members which contain key word tags. Tags are set by the twibe founder and are listed just above the tweet stream. You can browse through twibes that have already been created by going to www.twibes.com/twitter-groups.

Poor Twitter! It may be the hottest service on the Web, but it’s also profoundly misunderstood. Lots of people cheerfully admit they don’t get it. Others emphatically believe things about it that aren’t true. I encounter confusion over Twitter every day, especially in the real world as I chat with folks who have either never used it, or have tried it and then walked away. It also pops up on Twitter itself (where, incidentally, I’m @harrymccracken and a feed of all Technologizer stories is available at @technologizer).
