What If Twitter Had Always Existed?

It's pretty much a fact that Twitter (I'm @ablogaboutthngs) has revolutionized the way we all communicate on the Web in the short year that it's been around. But what would the world have been like if Twitter had always been around and every figurehead and history-maker was sending their tweets? Sound boring? Think again!

Historical Tweets have also put together a list of the some of Shakespeare's best lines titled 50 Famous Lines of #Tweetspeare. I particularly enjoy "@Romeo, O @Romeo, why is your username @Romeo?"
