I still don't get what Twitter's value proposition is. What do you get out of it as a consumer?

I remember how Twitter started. It was this obscure alternative to RSS feeds, that many news channels suddenly started pushing (why?). I remember how they would actively include a segment in nightly news on talking about what has been posted on Twitter, back when it wasn't really anything newsworthy. It did not seem like organic growth to me.

If you spend some time and mute all the politics, it is a must-have media.
