Twitter [1] is increasingly becoming a richer and richer part of users lives. Even with all the twitter evangelism, though, there are still plenty of hold-outs who think it's silly or might not be useful. It's becoming a network that activates the 6 Degrees of Separation principal in powerful ways. This past weekend, Mike Arrington [2]'s Internet access went down. Comcast customer service failed for him, and after spending some time with a chicken, he vented on Twitter [3]. Shortly after the tweet, Mike got a call from a Comcast executive and his problem was quickly repaired. Even though I can't expect every Geek Brief viewer to join twitter, I believe in its benefits enough to try. If you're not following me, I'm at twitter.com/calilewis [4].
