Twitter is the real-time equivalent of wikipedia. It has changed the way we meet and interact, but only if used properly.
Media outlets claim that their new competition is Twitter, FriendFeed, etc. They are wrong. Every single one of us is now competition. We are our own media outlets.

Well written post. However, what I don't like about this "Twitter" phenomenon, is that I feel that it just down plays the way people interact with others because you are limited to that about of characters you can write. Thus, making people dumber and lazy with their brains.
I worry also that it will only escalate the already horrible "self entitalement" problem, because the reasoning behind Twitter is "What are YOU doing RIGHT NOW" thing.
Now Justin, I'm not saying you are getting dumber or anything, but I'm always a little skeptical with advancing technology and what it can do on a person's soul. Maybe I'm just crazy.
