I know that I'm glad I can't access them when I'm working in my cube at the state. I also can't access blogs. :) I think it's okay not to trust employees. I don't trust myself on the issue.

This also I suppose is similar to adoption of prior technologies and mediums (are people checking the fax machine, are they answering the phone or checking their mail). There is a big learning curve, no doubt, but I think the office productivity magic we are all looking for in software may be somewhere in the interconnections that are happening via Twitter and other asymmetrical networks like that.
