I feel old that you mention them ;) BTW, I love that Twitter quote... not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing... Michal - I am truly addicted to Twitter... and I think it's here to stay... for the foreseeable future anyway :) Michael – oh yes, I remember one-to-one!

Twitter is so new, yet if you asked me, I'd probably say I've been using it for five years or so. Will we be still using it five years from now?

I also remember someone saying on Twitter recently: 3 years ago I sent you a birthday card, 2 years ago I sent you a text, a year ago I left you a message on Facebook. This year, I've sent you a message on Twitter. Times are indeed a'changing. Wonder what we'll be doing this time next year?
