I think it's the same curiosity that causes rubber necking at accident scenes. I've been fascinated by an on-going relationship battle my niece and her boyfriend are carrying out in public on Facebook. Not sure why it intrigues me, but an even better question is why they chose that venue to air their differences.
Twits are funny, sad, serious and informative. Much like on mailing lists, I rarely post, but I read constantly. Yesterday on Twitter, I found out that Hugh Jackman is offering a 100K donation to any non-profit that convince him - on Twitter - in 140 words or less, that they deserve the donation. That challenge will be interesting to watch.
