Happy 6th birthday to Twitter!
Writing for Mashable.com, Stan Schroeder effectively captures the significance of this milestone in the first two sentences of his post, which was publsihed earlier today:

Twitter passed the 500 million user count last month and continues to grow rapidly. I find it useful personally and professionally. I have also observed many of my colleagues in multiple contexts who resisted the technology initially have created an account in the last year.

- How do you currently use Twitter in your personal life? professionally? as a part of your discipleship?
