		<description>&lt;p&gt;I had a detailed reply, but it got eaten when the internet went away when I tried to post, and &quot;back&quot; didn&#039;t take me back to the form.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m not thinking &quot;point of broadcast&quot; so much.  I just like segregating my conversations...  I&#039;m not the type to sit at the counter and chat with everyone, I&#039;m the type to get a private corner and chat with a couple people.  Maybe Twitter&#039;s not for me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But I really think the core issue is that Twitter really lends itself to &quot;serious&quot; social networks.  It&#039;s not something to casually keep up with fifty of your closest net-friends as much as it is to keep up with five of your best friends.  Assuming you want to know what your best friends had for dinner last night.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That, of course, is nothing like what I tried to say the first time, before the Internet ate it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh... one thing that keeps coming up in my head:  Twitter asks, &quot;What are you doing?&quot; and I&#039;m far more interested in &quot;What are you *thinking*?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;No, no, it adds to the charm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I just don&#039;t like drinking coffee, is my only problem there. So I just sit around and smell it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Twitter isn&#039;t a targeted point of broadcast.  It&#039;s a coffee house.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
