I spend much more time reading other people's tweets than updating my own.
When you log in to Twitter you're always shown the latest tweets from everyone you're following, and I tend to read through those, comment on anything I might want to and then update.
Every social networking site relies on the self indulgence of it's members to update the world as to what they're doing, but Twitter isn't anywhere near as much like this.
Because everything is in little bitesized chunks, you're much more inclined to read what someone else has got to say, rather than having to read an essay each time someone updates.
Facebook and Myspace are much more heavily weighted to telling the world what you're doing without having to pay any attention to what anyone else is doing around you. Twitter redresses the balance and manages to put a bit more weight behind paying attention to others before yourself.
Plus Stephen Fry's updates are fantastic 99.9% of the time:
"En route to LHR for Bavaria and second leg of Wagner documentary. M4 traffic is an arse pig."
"Headache. Faint nausea. Wobbliness. All the symptoms of a hangover. But surely I wasn't dr... oh. Yes. That's right. I was. I did. Hm."
