Anyone out there want to explain to me what exactly it is? I mean, how it it different from AIM or other such chat programs? I'm not ashamed to admit I just don't get it [g]
It's not so much a chat program as a mini-blog. You can post tiny entries, a few lines long. Quick little updates. It's not really chatting because you aren't conversing with someone the same as you would over AIM or gtalk. You can direct posts at a specific person but it's not a private conversation.
I used it when I was in a class on using online tech for school media centers. I don't use it much anymore since the only people I was following at the time were my classmates.
