Twitter

Real quick note to mention thatballdontlie is now on Twitter. I'm not actually posting anything, but it does allow me access to real-time news. Despite its awful name, Twitter is actually quite a revelation. For those turned-off by the intrusiveness of Facebook, Twitter is more like an AP or Reuters stream directly onto your cell phone or computer.

For folks like me, I'm curious about Charlie Villanueva's reaction to the new Pistons assistant coach (hence the Quote of the Day). Or Charlie Davies' reaction to the Mexico loss (below). This is info you can't always get from a news article. Twitter is a new way to get player reaction and insight. It's quite revolutionary.
