<aside>I can’t believe I used that as a subject for this post, but it is oddly appropriate.</aside>

I’ve been getting into Twitter more and more recently.  Not just since the inestimable Stephen Fry (@stephenfry) talked about it on his appearance on the Jonathan Ross (@wossy)) show – I started following him long before that, and was able to read about the process of filming the show, too.  It’s hard to describe why it is so addictive to hear what someone you’ve never met is up to, what problems they’re having on the way to the airport, or how they’re snowed in.

I guess the best description I’ve seen is by Scott Hansellman in his post How to Twitter – First Steps and a Twitter Glossary

I recommend you have a read and see if tweeting is for you, but be warned, you may never want to leave!
