As we takeover the work force, I think we have a certain level of expectancy when it comes to speed and information. In terms of creating value, one can take a look at a function of Facebook -- a Myspace for college students & alumni. The “news” function allows every edit that you make on your page to show up as an alert on your friends' page (from what you're doing, to new pictures, to updates on your blog). At first, it felt like an invasion of privacy, but users soon realized that the new function established a feeling that you're more connected with your friends which leads to a notion that you're somehow more significant in their lives—and besides time, that is another important benefit of tools like twitter that can be utilized to create value in the workforce.
