“Given that Twitter, along with texting and instant-messaging, is so often thought of as a dire threat to the writing skills of the American adults of tomorrow—not to mention to the English language and therefore civilization itself—what in the world does it mean that people are now speaking in Twitter? Not much, actually. Twitter may be changing the way we talk but not in a way that is cause for concern. In other words: Hashtag chill out.”

- John McWhorter: Twitterish | The New Republic

Who else hashtags offline conversations? After reading this, I’m glad to know I’m not the only one! (Though, I try to do it sparingly, and normally only in my house. Not in public … at least not yet!)
