James D talks about microblogging & Luis talks about a specific application for emergency services. I've noted my personal preferences recently but for me microblogging has got F.A. to do with blogging. My posts tend towards the terse but I generally break the 160 character barrier. For me, a blog post has to have an idea in there. It may not be yours. It may not be any good. But it's there.
I see Twitter & Facebook status info as presencing technologies and as James notes, they have more to do with SMS & IM than blogs & wikis. And these will have important uses for people working remotely from each other (i.e. increasingly all of us).
N.B. As a side bet, literary forms will emerge out of presencing technologies. SMS poetry for example.

I setup a TwitterPoetry account some time ago, offering open access. You can see it at http://twitter.com/TwitterPoetry
Cool! So how does the open access thing work?
