As you now know, Twitter is a micro-blogging tool that acts like a human search engine. Twitter can be used to monitor people or topics in real time, which is a useful reporting tool.
Here are some highlights of the recent Pew/Internet Report on Twitter.
- 11% of online adults use Twitter
- Users skew younger, median age 31
- Twitter is intertwined with use of blogs and social network sites
- Twitter users consume blog content; 21% read someone else’s blog “yesterday” and 29% have created a blog
MediaPost also commented on the recent report. Maxine also shared with me the NY Times story Dr. Gilpin mentioned in class.
