That doesn't help me. I know that much from reading about Stephen Fry. What I want to now is how it works.

If I was to sign up, what would I see? Would it be like a bulletin board? "A good way of keeping in touch" could be said of phones, but that doesn't tell me how to go about it.
DRINK?

Why don't you just try it and find out?
So to check your Twitter do you navigate to a certain webpage (like facebook) or is it something you can have running at the bottom of a browser, or in a stand-alone application (like mIRC or other chat channels).
How is it any better than facebook, an IRC chat channel, RSS-feeds, forums or using email?
What is it's 'USP' (other than a stupid-sounding name and lots of celeb-hype)?

Yeh.
He clearly has time to waste. He should stop thinking about it and update us on something banal.
WTF does "overthinking" mean?
It only took me a few seconds to "think about" and write that post. If I did any less "thinking" I'd end up posting "meeergh blergh blergh meep meep meep" or somesuch random noises.
Sorry if you don't do 'techie' - feel free to leave it to people who enjoy that kind of stuff.

It is similar to a bulletin board in that it is a time-sequenced series of posts (or "tweets") from users. Each tweet is limited to 140 characters in length. You only see the updates from other users that you "follow" - imagine Urban, but you only see posts by people you are interested in, and they are more disconnected thoughts than an ongoing conversation.If I was to sign up, what would I see? Would it be like a bulletin board? "A good way of keeping in touch" could be said of phones, but that doesn't tell me how to go about it.
But it can also be used for two-way conversation - by prefixing your tweet with another user's name - "@dannylarouge Can you recommend a good plumber?" - you can interact with your friends or strangers, for whatever reason.
You don't have to use the website to post or read updates from Twitter - there are many different applications that allow you to update your status or read others' updates without jumping into a new browser tab. In that way it is a much more ambient way of receiving information from your contacts (imagine if Urban just updated with interesting information without you having to click around, and 'pushed' that information to your [computer/mobile] without any action on your part).
Need any more information?

All the people asking questions could easily find out by just going on there.
It is pretty simple. It wouldn't take more than five minutes.
