Twitter, is there anything it can’t do?

So, a week ago Chris Brogan posted an article about how Twitter hooked him up with a cool contact in Boston who actually took him to Celtics game, in a box with food and everything. Sweet.

This week, J.C. Hutchins wrote a post about how Twitter actually helped find him an amazing sounding job for an interesting sounding company called Myxer that provides a distribution platform for user generated ringtones, wallpapers and so much more. Sweeter.

Of course, there is the case of Susan Reynolds, and her highly successful Boobs on Ice Twitter led initiative. Amazing, inspiring, and yes, sweet.

Lots of people knock Twitter, saying it is useless and silly, a waste of time.  Tell that to Chris, J.C. and Susan. I bet they would disagree.

I know there are other exciting things happening with Twitter. What have I missed?

    Twitter does more and more for me each day. I just posted that a web developer friend was looking to pick up work. Seven responses came in within five minutes. That’s seven chances for this guy to make money. Hey wait! Where’s MY cut? : )

    You should start a Twitter HR firm! That would probably work out well, and then you can take a percentage.
