Hi, :-)

I really wonder why this is necessary... I'd stay with Twitter... It's
what everyone knows.... Or should we get off Facebook, too?

My 0.2 cents.

P.S. But don't let me "dent" your enthusiasm :-D but *no-one* around
me has heard of denting and dents... A lot of people have heard of
Twitter and tweeting...

Both terms are equally difficult in localisation in many languages.

Plus, these are a sort of proper names of (volatile) services, which may

or may not be durable. So I propose to use the more generic name

"microblog" for those.
