What everyone is doing just now…

… would normally be out of our reach. Yes, you can argue that about 4 million people are going to have sex just now, 15 million are sleeping in their bed, and around 9 million are surfing the web just this moment. Don’t sue me on these numbers, they are completely unrelated, and everyone knows 96% of statistics are made up on the spot anyway.
If you would like to take a look at what random people from all over the world are doing just now, the new fad when it comes to publishing your thoughts online might be Twitter.
It’s a sort-of-blog where you can register and then answer the only question they ask you there, over and over: “What are you doing?”
Then you will see yourself in the twitter timeline together with what all the other user have done or are doing at the moment. More or less another service mankind didn’t really need to surive, but a fancy thing nontheless. I like to give the site a visit whenever I am bored on the net, i.e. when I’m at work.
