Seriously though, twitter has an immense amount of practical uses.
search.twitter.com and save results as an RSS feed is what I use the most.

Now Foursquare on the other hand

I tweet a lot, and I will often post when I'm going out. However that

  No need to case
 the joint as twitterers post where they are at all times leaving ample
 warning of them coming home so that you can rob their homes.
 
 Nice lesson to teach some people.

In the coming months and years, folks who refuse to embrace the two way
web will be left behind. It's taking the world by storm and enabling all
sorts of new opportunities. Now with that comes some risks and those
need to be mitigated. It's just like mounting access points on towers.
You get substantial advantages, along with a fair amount of risk.

Our squirrel chewed off everything down to the copper center conductor
leaving it absolutely shiny and unmarred for just over 1 foot.  Everything
worked fine except for the Internet and low (1-6) channels as the cable
was against the metal gutter and the shield was enjoying a high-pass
filter via the capacitance of the shield's proximity to the gutter.
