So I've been hesitant about jumping in on the Twitter mania that seems to be bubbling up all over the place.  I sort of get it but honestly haven't tried it yet.  I've been harassed by my former colleague now turned Forrester Analyst (Mr. Steven Noble) to start tweeting and just get in the game.  I think about it, and probably will do it soon, just not today.

In any case, Steven sent my way a Twitter-powered event, a wine-tasting across borders by Project Vino.  They basically shipped out some wine to groovy bloggers across Australia, with the only catch was that they had to wait and taste the wine at a specific time and Twitter about their experience.  This sort of put everyone in the same room even though they were thousands of kilometers away from each other.  The Twitter site shows what everyone is tweeting about in real time and has everyone's web cameras catching all the action as well.
