I’ve longed debated the value of “Twitter”:http://www.twitter.com, but now it has a chance to prove itself. The thing about Twitter is that it allows real time conversation with anyone/everyone. As opposed to IM where you can send a message to a friend, Twitter lets you send public messages that anyone can read. I’m also able to use their search feature to find messages with certain keywords.

Today my keywords are ORD and O’hare. I’m watching people “tweet” live about the status of the airport and their flights. I’m finding several others who are in the same boat as me. Both SFO and ORD are experiencing delays, but my airline and every other source is slow to update me. Let’s see if Twitter can help get me the information I need.

I figured Taruna earned some good homemade chile con queso and guacamole after a long day of babysitting.

All he does now it walk around meowing all day.
