I like the idea, it is way better than FB IMHO I dont like being bombarded by friend requests and adds on FB, Facebook settings can fix this but I am really not liking FB so much, Twitter at least is a simple UI and serves it's perpose.
remember when we would write letters ( on paper) to our family across the US or friends over seas, then E-mail came about and Snail Mail was just too slow no one had the time for it so we went to e-mail.
Now no one "has the time" to reply to their e-mails" we don't take the time, so Twitter makes it easy to keep in touch or at least keep family informed.. all this Tech based communication is nice but impersonal.
So my point being Don't forget Grandma, or your Great Auntie living across the states, a letter now & again is nice.
Taking the time shows we care to send the very best...
