Perhaps I am wrong, my assumption is, the more different tools we have, the 
more volunteers DDN would need. Presently we sometime have to wait for days 
before emails are approved for publication, (2 of my emails took about a month 
for approval), I think that would kill Twiter, for example? Another hesitation 
I have is, from my own observation the past 3 years, I think there are only a 
handful of DDN members that are very skill at using different tools. What would 
that mean in finding volunteers? Personally even IF I am willing, I would not 
dare to offere my service.

Why not just have ddn activities in multiple places? There's no reason why
this has to be an either-or discussion. In an ideal world, DDN would be via
email, on Moodle, have a wiki, be on Facebook, Twitter, Friendfeed, YouTube,
etc...
