Email was born sometime between 1965 and 1970, depending on how you define its genesis, and by 1980 it was considered by many to be the killer app. It drove the proliferation of PCs in the workplace and allowed people all over the world to work together. SMS texting and tweeting can take some credit for email's slow decline. However, it remains the most widely used application -- just ask the U.S. government. Even in tech-savvy cities, texters and tweeters account for only about a tenth of electronic communications recipients.

Interesting. Under the IBM Jazz initiative, https://jazz.net/ one of the offerings built on Jazz technologies is IBM Rational Team Concert, which provides defect tracking and configuration management capability. Team Concert embeds Lotus Sametime componentry for instant messaging and presence functionality, which provides twitter-like capability in real-time.
