I never use twitter anyway, although I have an account there. My suggestion is mobile blogging, it's a lot better because we can still send any message around the world to our sites/blogs. What about the cost ? GPRS / 3G are cheap now. I prefer to send a whole stories to my blogs rather than only a message or two. I don’t think so.

Twitters can help lead me to blogs where comments are dicussed in more detail... which is great for an overview of what is happening generally in my chosen field.

I'd guess the first one :-/ Maybe there'll be room for it as an add-on to blogs, but at the moment it's just a novelty Twitter is like a missing link between blogs and facebook – the question is, will it become a website for passing time on lunchbreaks like FB, or change the face of the internet like blogs have done?

I just joined Twitter! But Evan's theory might be true to some extent but I really don't think Twitter's killing the blogs. Small Screens might be taking over big screens in some "emergency" cases but big screens still rule over mobile screens, people like me who actually READ various blogs are never gonna adapt small screens as long as they got a monitor at home..

To debate! To me twitter is not useful, just excessive promotion! I believe twitter is just some hype.

1. it is a very simple service they offer

Suitable for consumption on the go, but doesn't contain much inherent value. Sure, there are scenarios where it is valuable where short updates on that status of something are needed, but I think the majority of useful content is longer form. Perhaps I'm too "old school", but I see blogs and twitter-like services as complementary, rather than competitive. I’m not sure I agree – Twitter content is short and temporary.

I can definitely see the attractiveness of managing your reputation through twitter rather than blogging because of the time-saving advantages but personally as a reader I wouldn't use Twitter as an alternative to following blogs. So perhaps the number of bloggers may fall but readers could stay at the same level.

I guess it would depend on everyone's individual preferences, but I'd rather meet some nice people on Twitter who come to my blog and I visit their blogs in return :) While I think Twitter could be useful for many things and networking with others I don’t think it would be suitable for replacing blogging all together.
