Why do I Twit?

I often find myself trying to explain why someone should get into twitter. Ironically it's usually part of a conversation about something I found out about from some twitters I follow. More often than not they like what I found out but still don't buy the twitter thing.

A blog I read explained that those who use twitter LOVE it and those that don't, just don't get it!

Here's an attempt to explain it on video. I'm finding it INVALUABLE as a connection point, a 'similar minds' network and a goldmine of teaching resources and ideas.
