I like twitter.  I don’t love it.  Love is reserved for things like diet pepsi.

Anyway, on to liking twitter.

Simply put: connection.  But it is more than that.  Let me put it this way.  I love google.  I love the simplicity in the fact that the opening page doesn’t look like a bulletin board at a coffee shop with no standards for who is putting crap on their board (read: yahoo, msn, etc).  And I love that my search will almost always come up with what I am looking for on the first page.  The thing about twitter (disregarding what people are eating for lunch or when they are relieving themselves) is this: I get search results for things I didn’t know I should be searching for.
