readwriteweb.com — How useful can communication limited to 140 characters be for serious journalism? It turns out that the short messages you find on Twitter have proven wildly useful for some writers penning larger pieces.

I like how I have to negative diggs for telling the truth. Can the people who dugg me down show me how I am wrong? Are there still people out there that follow the MSM?

The referenced article gives no reasons to use Twitter that can't be accomplished with a static web page (with a much larger potential audience) or by emailing your friends. Twitter is a great slower substitute for IM, but not much more.
