I’m having a hard time picturing what short bursts of words from my Dean might look like. Maybe: “The elevator is broken again” or “No raises this year either” or “Please start supplying your own toilet paper”?
Today’s news suggests that the answer might well be “yes” for such messages as the ones Ann Bartow postulates. If a Tweet can shortcut the hold queue of an airline or telecom provider, Twitter’s future is bright!
