Hmm, interesting. I don't attempt to sell Twitter to anyone. It's one of those things that you either get...or you don't.

Before joining Twitter I was a business owner, I failed to see how it could benefit me in any way. Until I realised that I could effectively send a "newsletter" that used to take me a full day to compile & make pretty in a series of 15 second Tweets.

Soon after joining Twitter I made a rather dramatic change to my lifestyle and started a not-for-profit organisation. Twitter almost single-handedly has raised for my own NFP and other charities I've got behind nearly $100,000 - just in the last 9 months

I'm going to Indonesia in June to take 10 orhpaned children off the streets who are at risk of being sold to the Indonesian child sex trade, almost exclusively through networking on Twitter. And I am NOT a social media expert or guru. I have a relatively small group of followers.

I dunno - I guess it depends who you ask. Pretty sure if you ask those 10 kids in a few years time what they think of Twitter, they'll be sold.
