Twitter could never be as good as fairly ubiquitous alternatives such
as screen sharing, but maybe there are corporate cultures where
they're using Twitter for things it's not very good at, and if that
channel is available, I can see how you might use it, just as people
use IM in situations where email works better.
Twitter is useful as a mini-blog / BBS platform you can post to with a
not-very-smart cell phone. Nothing else I've seen people doing with it
makes any sense.
