Thing number 4 (23 Things) is to look at Twitter, RSS and Pushnote. Here is where I have to confess that although I do have a Twitter account, I don't use it. Already I've got too much to look at: I have a feed reader for my RSS, a Google homepage for this that and t'other, my work email, my home email, there's LinkedIn too....!
So now I'm following a few people I think look really helpful. I don't know whether I'll find time to keep tabs on Twitter as well as everything else, but obviously other people do! It seems to me that it's most useful for people with mobile devices.e.g. at conferences. I think it's so easy to get overloaded and you need to pick and choose the right tool for the right job. I do like the idea of using Twitter to ask questions though - that's one brilliant thing about Web 2.0 - if you've got a question, it's a great way to get a whole variety of helpful answers (provided anyone actually sees your question of course) - and Twitter could be really good for this.
