Twitter content, from Wikipedia:

San Antonio-based market-research firm Pear Analytics analyzed 2,000 tweets (originating from the US and in English) over a two-week period in August 2009 from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM (CST) and separated them into six categories:

• Pointless babble – 40%
• Conversational – 38%
• Pass-along value – 9%
• Self-promotion – 6%
• Spam – 4%
• News – 4%

What is Twitter good for?

Keeping a lid on OC friends.

Instead of having to see ten pages of trivial nonsense posted on FB by the same three people, I can just avoid their Tweets by never using Twitter.

Win-win.

No clue.

But for some reason it's approximately the 10th most viewed site on the internet.

I don't know. I used it for a while and then lost interest. Not many links I was real interested in following since I just add many to my favorites.

I love Twitter. I swear by it now. It is such an informative social networking site. It is exactly the way people want to consume their news now - in 140 characters or less. It gives you a peak into what each article/post/link will be about, allowing the consumer to choose exactly what they want to read and dont want to read. It gives you updates on your favorite celebrities, sports players, journalists, fashionistas, publications, stores, products - basically anything and everything. It is the best way to keep yourself informed and up to date on every kind of news!
