Twitter: My micro-assessment of micro-blogging.

Twitter has its place in the universe of social networking because it's so abbreviated. It's a great way, depending on what you follow, to stay current on any interests you might have because of how readily digestible the information is, and how frequently people update their Twitter accounts. It requires much less set up than Facebook and its simplicity also makes it an ideal platform for people who are micro-blogging from phones and portable devices. The library could use it to keep people informed about all the events going on.
