Hi Lisa, I think a lot of people have that problem at first, struggling to "get it" when it comes to Twitter. Yes you could just use it to update your friends with mundane items like "Just ate toast", but when used properly it is a very exciting communications tool that can be used for useful conversations, promoting blogs, sharing news, crowd-sourcing, the list goes on. Since you found this blog post you might also be interested in my free guide to integrating Twitter and WordPress which also goes into some brief explaination about what Twitter is and how to use it. I'm thinking of writing my next free ebook in a lot more detail about what Twitter is and how to use it but I think Clare Lancaster from DotMarketing is about to release something like that so check out her blog in the next few days. Another good resource is Twitip by Darren Rowse of Problogger. In the meantime maybe sign up to Twitter (if you haven't already) and follow some useful folks like @Problogger as a good example of effective use of Twitter.
