I tweeted asking if anyone could put me in touch with an iPhone app developer. Got a positive answer, but the crazy part is that the tweet came from a co-worker on the 3rd floor in my own organization.<BR/><BR/>I'm seeing 3 strata of tweets - the first (as you mention) is a tiring succession of updates on what the user is doing (having lunch, going to work, whatever); the second is a press release/headline from an organization; and the third (the only kind I really care about, and the rarest) is provocative, intriguing and out of the ordinary.<BR/><BR/>There are plenty of FB status updates in the first category, but because FB allows the user to "see less of" certain friends, it's easier to manage the information flow. The beauty and liability of Twitter is that all tweets are equal.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16258095001569531134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139505.post-58134997013933899682009-03-02T16:28:00.000-05:002009-03-02T16:28:00.000-05:00I just don't get the appeal of Twitter.

Nothing personal on yours, I was following my nephew's during a recent trip abroad and had the same reaction hardly worth my time clicking on the link. But then again, I never got the appeal of IM, either, just found it annoying and interrupting chains of though when they popped up on my computer, so I shut them all off. Needless to say, I'm the boomer generation...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139505.post-10396666270016953442009-03-02T11:48:00.000-05:002009-03-02T11:48:00.000-05:00You may be interested in this article on the Mille...You may be interested in this article on the Millennial Generation: <A HREF="http://www.flypmedia.com/issues/24/#1/1" REL="nofollow">FLYP: Meet the Millennials</A>.AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694545222064151928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139505.post-71361078137269850692009-02-23T19:58:00.000-05:002009-02-23T19:58:00.000-05:00Twitter is great for those of us who don't always ...Twitter is great for those of us who don't always time to read an entire blog entry but still want to know what's shakin'.vkwheelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02120409750270900714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17139505.post-9280870870983791972009-02-23T19:41:00.000-05:002009-02-23T19:41:00.000-05:00Greg Sandow is "going" viral?
