Twitter - helpful posts, definitions, stats

This is going to be an organic roll, as my friends and I find articles, blog posts, stats on Twitter, I'll be adding to this post. If you want something added and don't want to comment, twitter me at twitter.com/zenaweist.

Thank you so much for spreading the word about my feed. Thousands of people (and hundreds of twitter subscribers) have now been helped by using Twitter as a tool. But it's only the beginning of citizen journalism doing a better job than mainstream. Here's some ideas on what could be done better in the wake of this disaster. I would love your thoughts on it.
