Social Media 101

I'm developing a course on Social Media. As I work on this course I'll be posting blogs seeking your opinions. So today's topic is Twitter. There are so many different application extensions like TwitPic, Tweetdeck, Twitterfeed, Twitterholic, etc., etc. Which ones do you use?

Also, how often do you use Twitter? What do you use it for? Do you follow conversations based on topics you are interested in? Do you follow Twitter for coverage of live events (NBA Finals, American Idol, etc., etc.)

If someone was interested in signing up for Twitter what would you tell them? What advise would you give? Would you tell them to join or to forget about it, it's a fad that will pass?
