Sixteen Great Twitter Moments
Mashable! —
Being a Twitter user (@dspark) for some time now, I like many others have become evangelical about the micro-blogging tool.

(Thanks to Dave Taylor.)

For example, in the last week or two I have seen invitations to join my ostensible circle of friends on ...
