How is Twitter being used outside of the education? Mashable offers a "Top 10 Most Extraordinary Tweets" which covers everything from reporting on national disasters in real time, to marriage proposals, to organizing charity events.

Some of my favorite (and some of my least favorite) Twitter experiences (not in the Top Ten list) include:

Twitter in the classroom
Twitter to recover stolen bikes
Twitter Tracking to arrest protesters

How will you use Twitter?
