Twitter…My New Alarm Clock

Ahhhhh, yes, I was awakened this morning, gently fortunately, by Twitter notifications coming from my Blackberry which was on my nightstand. I’m new to using Twitter so I really haven’t formed a full opinion yet. However, I must say it was rather nice to be awakened by a gentle sound alerting me to the many “Good mornings!” popping up on Twitter from across the country.
I signed up for Twitter months ago, but couldn’t quite figure out just what all the hullabaloo was about until I discovered a bunch of my cyber friends and acquaintances were also on Twitter. Now I can see how useful this little tool can be and fun at the same time. After Twittering over the weekend I see Twitter can be a useful tool when you want to make an business or personal announcement, have a question, or simply need to know you’re not alone in the world while in your home office or tethered to some mobile device.
How else is Twitter useful? Got any suggestions? What do you like most about Twitter?
***Update*** Seems Twitter is a really useful tool in times of an emergency such as the LA earthquake that hit a bit ago. Lots of Twitters relaying their experience and notifying family & friends of their well-being.
