twitter for library alerts http://twitter.com/mrrl

Twitter is like…. … a celestial bulletin board … passing notes during class … being in a room with your "friends", saying something really loud, and hoping that someone hears you … a party in my phone … a bus full of crazy people talking to themselves. Except you get to choose who is on the bus Twitter is instant gratification! http://librarygarden.blogspot.com/2007/12/meme-twitter-is-like.html
