Twitter intertwined with social media
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. I have recently joined the twitosphere and love it. You can follow me tweets, which are 140 character posts by clicking “follow” on my page. I will break down the twitter terminology in a future post for you.
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 broke down the report as well.
