What is Twitter? You asked that if you read the previous post, and followed to this post! Well, its somewhere between a blog and an IM. It uses both, if you want to.
What they say...
A global community of friends and strangers answering one simple question: What are you doing? Answer on your phone, IM, or right here on the web!
Multiple interfaces to a list of what you are doing. Your friends can "follow" you and get updates via their IM, the web or even their phone.
I have chosen to just use the IM and web, my phone makes noise and vibrates enough as it is.
Check out Twitter and see what all the Twittering is about.

Tumblelogs are small blogs. Perfect for beginners. Very simple. The home page boasts that you can set up your own in 30 seconds. ( I did it in less, but I am not a beginner. ;) )
Go and check it out. I love this site.
My tumblr is at http://tumblr.dixbert.com/ - I post directly to it, and I also have it set to publish my Twitter feed. What is Twitter? Read the next post.
