I have really started getting addicted to Twitter. I feel like one of those husbands who goes through a midlife crisis...this blog is my wife and twitter is the sassy little bitch in her 20s, brainless and carefree.
Anywhoo, one of my favorite things to do now is go on a Clickabout. I used to do this on google and wikipedia, but with twitter, a clickabout is more personal and esoterically informative.
Essentially, a clickabout is clicking a link on a page, reading for 20 seconds and then clicking a link to a new page. It is kind of like swinging through vines in a jungle.
The way to do it through twitter is by clicking either on links embedded within tweets, OR, the best thing to do is click through peoples followers. Remember you only get 20 seconds per page. It's a great way to learn things and also find random twitter friends you might never have found.
My advice would be to start with a big name, like stephenfry or laughingsquid and then work your way through the jungle harmony of tweets. Great way to spend a lazy Sunday.
