IRC? AIM? Gtalk? Chatterous? Campfire? iChat (it has video!!1)? I recently invented a cylindrical device which may be moved by being pushed or rotated via a center axis. It's not a true cylinder; I added some bumps to it so as to make it less efficient, but I have a feeling it's going to become way more popular than these "wheel" things everybody is using now.

yeah but the thing is, I think of twitter in the classic sense ("this is what I'm doing right now") Combine that with a work channel - eg "I'm currently putting a coversheet on the TPS reports" - then I believe it could be easier to co-ordinate efforts if you're company requires you to collaborate with others on projects. When you add in the additional functionality of directed chat (via @) and the backwards compatibility of having it work on older phones with SMS then it beats out IRC, Aim, Gtalk, Chatterous etc - especially in countries where internet costs on phones is too high for a staggered conversation to be useful.
