Twitter Going Mainstream?

It's been interesting to watch the evolution of how my kids communicate with their friends ouside of using a telephone. It's gone from email to AIM to MySpace comments to amalgam of texting, Facebook comments, and Facebook IM. Now that more and more kids are carrying smart phones I wouldn't be surprised to see Twitter enter the mix as it provides a nice bridge between the internet and mobile phones. If that happens it will also be interesting to see how millions of kids using Twitter affects Twitter.
