NY Times realizes Twitter is useful for travel

It takes the NY Times to catch up with the world around it ... especially when technology is involved. Hey, the newspaper wouldn't be in so much financial trouble if this weren't the case. But, they don't get it wrong; the reporters over there just take a bit longer to grasp what's happening.

So, I was pretty psyched when I saw in the "Frugal Traveler" column that Twitter can be used to get dinner reservations – even when you're on jury duty! Did you know that you can just peck a few characters into your cell phone or Blackberry and send it to thousands of people who might have an answer?

The Frugal Traveler is not ready to "Twitter [his] way across the country," but the Gadling team is.
