Social networking and the great beyond

Are you twittering?
If you are, you can follow me at http://twitter.com/kikilon. I'll be updating live from the snow next week, if I can get reception.
And of course I'll be covering the RWAus conference, which is only a few weeks away. Gah!
Who else is twittering around here? Who's your favourite person to follow?

What's your favourite way to stay in touch with people? Do you read a lot of blogs? Do you blog yourself? Loops?
What's the best way you get entertained by people you barely know? Share your story...
