Shaw Tweets

So, I've been watching the growth of Twitter for a while, but have never really been interested in getting into it.  I have no desire to share my life with the whole world in 140 character updates every ten minutes.  However, as I've walked around the neighborhood lately, I've been thinking that Twitter could be a great tool if we used it for communicating about the neighborhood.  If I see some cops fly by or something suspicious going on, I can post it to twitter.  If 6th street is suddenly covered with no parking signs and Pepco is digging, I can tweet about it.  If others in shaw do the same, we could have a fast way to exchange info, faster than the listserves.

I don't know if this will work, but if others in Shaw are on twitter, let me know!  I'm a complete twitter novice, so I don't know all the conventions and rules, but it's worth a shot.  Here I am on twitter: http://twitter.com/shawberhood
