		<description>@Brett, that might totally be true.  Except I&#039;m also quite introverted, as are many people I know on Twitter.  But I understand the perspective you are coming from and respect that.

@Jim, yeah, lots of people use it for prayer.  There is also, www.gosplr.com and then the main prayer social network out there that I know of is http://www.kindlejoy.com  You should check them out.

And we will definitely see more of this for sure.

		<description>I&#039;ve been wondering about prayer life on Twitter.  I know a few churches sending out prayer requests, but it seems the perfect tool for a church to connect members in community.

Christianity is built around community.  It&#039;s what holds us up and helps prevent stumbles in faith to out and out falls.  What happens when the minister and the church staff start using Twitter as a way to connect congregations between Sundays?

Twitter gives us the opportunity to be sending prayers, thoughts, and advice to other Christians on the other six days we aren&#039;t in Church.  It helps organize, and helps brings people together

And if you don&#039;t like the deacon in the pew next to you, you don&#039;t have to follow him.  What could be better?

Wondering if we&#039;ll see more of this.</description>

		<description>This is interesting, but as an introvert (MTBI: INFP), I&#039;m not sure I&#039;m comfortable opening my private life to others to that degree. Also, I&#039;m not really interested in knowing those details of others&#039; lives either. This must be an extrovert thing.</description>

		<description>I think what&#039;s interesting is how we choose to follow people we really don&#039;t know.  Makes it even a little more weird, or creepy, than when we call people &quot;friends&quot; on fb when we either don&#039;t know them or don&#039;t know them as well as what we used to in the human touch world, call friends.

I like that I&#039;ve been able to learn more little things about others and have touchpoint conversations about things in real life, but it is also a bit TMI or TMT or TMSM is you ask. (too much info, too much twitter/txt, too much social media)  We are still like a bunch of kids on Christmas vacation the days following the biggest Christmas of our lives - toys toys toys.

I&#039;m not really sure people have figured out the difference in Toys and Tools and when they might be both or neither - which can create a false sense on identity and productivity.

I love staying connected and getting reconnected - like we have Mr. Smith - but I have to admit that I&#039;m looking for someone to start a line of Rehab Centers for bloggers, twitters, texters, and the like.  And as an entreprenuer - I can see the need, the need for less speed.
