Twitter lets people see what its users are doing. A lot of people find it useless (see below cartoon) as it only allows for status updates
However, some have found Twitter extremely useful. At the G-20 protests, the protesters had immediate updates to all police locations and actions to stop their protests. Similarly, the police also were informed about the protesters locations through their website which detailed the date and time of protests (see below video)
Up to individual users to decide whether Twitter is just a fad or a proper social networking platform
