The best way to unclutter with Twitter (and all those other apps) is just to not use them! After all, if no one can remember who owes who a beer, does it really matter?

What is a bot? What is SMS? I gather IM is instant messaging? I can "interact with these bots with a client like Twitterrific?" Now if you said a "product like Twitterrific" I could kind of follow, but the part about a client has me totally confused. As far as I know, clients are people that hire a business owner, lawyer, etc... Maybe it's just me, but it seems like this article assumes we already know what twitter is and how to get it. I'm sure if I googled and read other sources, I could figure it out, but I get the feeling I've missed something. I guess there's not even enough here for me to "grasp" and feel curious to learn more. This seems to be just giving extra details for people who are already users of this thing?

Whether your internet connection is working or not is irrelevant. Addtionally, Twitter is not a social networking site like LinkedIn or Facebook. Twitter is a communication tool. @Andamom — Most people, myself included, access Twitter via cell phone or Blackberry. Whether your internet connection is working or not is irrelevant.

I already have accounts with Facebook, LinkedIn, and who knows what else just to stay in touch. I have at least 4 different instant messaging programs (AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Sametime at work, etc.). I have my own blog and I blog occassionally on LJ. Seriously, if someone wants to stay in contact with me and know what I am doing, s/he can certainly find a way (Where there's a will, there's a way...) Now you want me to sign up for yet another program? Seriously -- My husband keeps trying to get us to sign up for Remember the Milk - or Backpack to get our task list together. Yet, I have avoided that like the plague and prefer instead to use one piece of paper that is stuck with a magnet to our white-board. It may sound neolithic --but it actually works and if our cable goes down (like it did for 3 days thanks to our 'friends' at Time Warner), I can just walk on over to the white-board or take the list with me to the store to remind me that I need to buy Gabriel new diapers or need to scan those slides my in-laws brought back from Japan in 1973. You get the point I think though... If not, the point is that I need to see -- for all additional apps (and Twitter is no different) that it adds value. Tell me how Twitter will improve my life and streamline the way I do things. Umm I haven’t wanted to sign up for Twitter because I just don’t see the benefit.

I currently use a Palm OS/Windows application called Bonsai but now that I have moved to Mac and Treo 680 with an unlimited data plan I would MUCH rather ubiquitous capture and review from something like Twitter and RSS.....both go EVERYWHERE!!!!! This is definitely worth a try. Thanks for the brilliant review of Twitterific options for fellow GTDers.
