I'm Not Normal?

Evan Williams Predicts That “Normal People” Will Use Twitter In Five Years .

I agree. Twitter, like blogger and television and video games and film and the printing press, gets a bad rap not only because it’s new, but because it’s created in response to various cultural trademarks: short attention spans, a desire for connection no matter how, a craving for constant streams of information. While Twitter succeeds because of these things, it can also be used successfully by Christians who leverage its benefits rather than succumbing to its dangers. 

It’s not a matter of percentages. Once the raw number of people who use twitter beneficially increases, so will the number of normal people who accept it as a useful tool. We saw a similar trend with blogging.
