The next Twitter...?

15 years ago

It's hard to say - but exciting to think about!

If you would've told me even 5 years ago that the next big thing would be where people could share 140 characters worth of whatever they were doing with other people, I would've thought you'd gone off your rocker.

I also would've laughed if you told me 10 years ago I'd marry someone I met online but that's beside the point

Well sort of.

I've always seen Twitter as an upgrade from Instant Messaging. 5 years ago, I would not have thought it would be the next big "buzz" outright, but I could see how it would capture the interest of anyone who uses Instant Messaging but wants larger exposure or public messsages without creating a private chatroom and inviting "buddies".

My thoughts exactly.

I know you won't believe me but I'll share this story anyway.

Last year we were discussing a new product that we were working on. It was one of those cool products that needed something to use it for.

I said, wouldn't it be great if bored office workers sitting at their desks could send a short SMS-type message to their equally bored friends, no matter where they are in the world. And they could reply in an equally short message.

It would pop up on their desktop then vanish.

Nah, my colleagues told me, it will never take off

Anyway, it takes more than an idea to make these things work - a few million bucks of investor capital helps.

Cheers,

Neil

If you think about it twitter is advancing the trend to dumb down messages. Email gets too long and wordy so it forces us to get to the point. Problem is some people have verbal diarrhea on twitter.

I would be looking for other ideas that help to minimize discussion down to a "to the point" system. Maybe a limited length email replacement

Yeah, I think Brad's onto something.

Seeing that Twitter is essentially a tool for those who find blogging just that bit too challenging, the trend would appear to favour a continuation in reductive communication.

I expect we'll see a new platform, let's call it "Mutter", where subscribers need only select from a pre-filled list of one-word responses.

The most used examples would be words such as: "Whatup?", "hey", "Duh", "Cool" and "Whatever"; but a couple of dozen should cover most social situations.

Yes, it is true Twitter states that they are not seeking revenue NOW, but did not rule out that for the future.

Someone will buy them, I'm sure, then they won't need to worry about it.

Someone with a business model that needs a content platform. No prizes for guessing who that might be.

Seriously though, if that was their business strategy (wait to be bought) it was risky from the get-go because there was no guarantee they would get the number of users they would need to be attractive to a suitor.

Anyway - enough about Twitter - we're here to look past it.

Not sure about the specs here but maybe a video site that actually streamed the live feed of what you were doing would be pretty cool. Short 20-30 second clips that could be sent from your phone. Interesting to think about but.. might not be the best thing to do.

Also would be a stalkers paradise.

Hi Neil

Interesting question. I'm finding it hard to think beyond the social networking arena mainly because I'm confident that it hasn't been exploited fully yet. Twitter has almost created a demand for something the market didn't know it wanted - an enviable position to find oneself. It's also an extremely simple and efficient concept requiring very little bandwidth for each user.

However, given no boundaries or restrictions but staying with social networking, maybe the idea simply needs ramping up with a video based blogging platform. A sort of cross between Youtube, Twitter and Bubbletweet. Short, 15 sec max videos, recorded direct from your webcam and delivered in a stream for video conversations.

Not that revolutionary or forward thinking, I know, but a start.

Peter

EDIT - Faffed about with that idea too long - jakz beat me to it. LOL

They say that great minds think alike

Probably would be a pretty expensive venture, and would require some solid venture capital behind it. If it became big I would imagine it would have huge hosting bills as well.

Unfortunately since twitter is unmonetized that might not be happening any time soon.

Maybe a site that would unite both twitter and YouTube instead.. API's hmmm.. something to think about.

I agree with Peter. I see the next big thing being some platform that combines short video with equally short messages. News about anything spreads fast even now, but it would be faster and more interesting with videos clips.

You never know - I wanted this thread to be a place to freely express ideas and if someone makes a go of something, cool!

I'm really enjoying the responses in the thread - some great thoughts - keep them coming.

Although some of the ideas like video tweeting seem prohibitive right now, jump forward 10 years and they'll probably have come and gone.

Getting the product or service right is one thing. Getting the timing right is another.

HI Neil,

I just did a Twitter review > Rich Sage Twitter Review | Rich Sage? Make Money Online Community > If you read a bit, I think Twitter is all hype.

There are a lot of people out there who have discovered a bridge between their PDA's and Web2.0 and refuse to stop talking about it.

After all, do you want to know what I had for lunch? What 'cool' and 'in' place I ate? OR would you go "old world" and just assume that I was hungry around noon, and got a bite to eat? I usually do.

Today there was a note from Twitter exec's about one problem: People signup to Twitter and only about 30% stick around more than a month.

I thought the swine flu was a good test for Twitter --could it get the message out even faster than some news outlet?

Then I found out that there is too much misinformation being broadcast via Twitter.

Anyway, at the end of my Twitter review I talked about FLUTTER --the next Twitter.

What is the NEXT BIG THING? I personally would like to see something that can block all this stuff out just one day of the week and allow me to hear a bird or just the wind.

Well, I think the best WEB Apps are yet to be discovered. We'll just have to wait.

All we need is an innovative viral marketing campaign to push up the user base on auto-pilot. We'll target 50 million and we can kick it off with a WSO.

Shouldn't take too long. We'll get Oprah on to it. Or maybe Susan Boyle.

Then, someone like eBay or Google will pay $50 per user.

$50 x 50 million = $2.5 billion

1.25 for you, 1.25 for me.

Do you accept PayPal?

I still think Twitter is the most useless invention I've seen other than the pet rock. It is not a logical step from instant messaging. With instant messaging you carry on a conversation. Everyone knows who's in the conversation and what the background of the conversation is. Twitter is more like contagious Tourette Syndrome.

It's only useful for marketers. Why do normal individuals (non IMers, product promoters, webmasters, and the like) have Twitter accounts??

Neil,

Great idea. Better than printing money.

I just worry about the "performance clause" contained in the Google agreement. It will say something like this:

IF acquisition does not make $X in the next year, then payment will be cut by 50%.

We often hear about grand payoffs --the press loves such huge amounts. What they fail to mention is the fine print that also has performance incentives or penalties for a lack there of.

I still admire everyone who works on such projects, products and services. I admire those souls a lot more than those who buy a lottery ticket and wait.

The Sage will rest now.

Don't know if it's the *next" big thing, but the future is all about a replacement for the newspaper. A Kindle-like device that connects to the internet and downloads a personalized selection of news, video, sports highlights, top blog posts, etc. and updates itself throughout the day. Or it downloads entire issues of newspapers and magazines. I know you're thinking "that's called a laptop", but I'm talking about something that gives the look and feel of a magazine or paper, and can be used by even the least tech-savvy person.

Content? No. Not really.

What the next big thing will be, whatever it looks like, will be just a continuation of the last big thing...and has been from Day ONE on the Internet.

Give the PEOPLE a VOICE. Now, are their thoughts and opinions CONTENT? Perhaps. But it doesn't matter. Give people a chance to have their say, to as many people as possible and you'll have a winner. They flocked to MySpace, FaceBook and other social networks not to connect with others, but to have others be connected to them...

I predict it will be PERSONAL "radio" channels on cell phones or PDA or whatever they evolve into...and you can "tune" in to find out what their thoughts are.

Broadcast Txtng by the mllns. And the frontrunner will be something like TMZ with a "reporter" on the spot 24/7 for your fav celeb.

Good post.

By content, I was including personal content - I didn't make that clear.

Bringing people together for social or business reasons is likely always going to be a winner because it serves some basic needs.

It would seem safe to assume that won't change - but the methods will, as you say, and that's where we as innovators can come in.

I see where you are coming from. I'd prefer to say decent content rather than keyword optimized. How do you optimize correctly? Today? Tomorrow? Next week? For what engine? Also if an algorithm awards x and people figure it out, then everybody does x (meta keywords for example) then the algorithms later discount or ignore the use of x, do you remake your pages and try to stay ahead of the shifting sands?

Things are moving that direction in some respects. It is widely believed that at least Google if not others factor in your behavior on a page after getting to it via a serp link. If you click back to the serps or otherwise leave the page instantly that could mean one thing versus if you stayed on that page for 2 minutes and then hit two others on the site. Couple google analytics with the google toolbar and there isn't a lot they don't know.

Links will probably always be important because they are considered votes for content and years ago it was very true. That all changed as soon as people found out they were considered votes. Now you have ballot box stuffing, voter fraud and the like. So to some extent links are being devalued. Currently the links we see being devalued are the links that anyone can create. Links in blog comments, links from social media sites, links from free sites. The links that carry the most weight are ones I refer to as webmaster links. Links the site owner or someone in control of the site would have to place as opposed to a link surfer Joe can create on a site via interaction.

It would be hard to discount the value of webmaster links, but we all know they are being bought and sold as well. I agree with you in that I would like links or any other factor that could be gamed to be discounted. There are a lot of people that won't agree with that either. The ones writing checks each month to stay in the top 10 would be one group. The shovel salesman selling the tools to get you in the top 10 would be another. It would be interesting times for sure

I don't think the next "big thing" will actually be anything, but rather a delivery system similar to how "apps" are taking the world by storm right now. I forsee a future where our phones ARE our computers that we just plug into a monitor at home. With apps you can run all of your social networking, shopping, games, music, movies, television from one little device.

The concept of "text messaging" will give away to simple "instant messaging" over these devices. Your life. Your bills. Your business or work will all be on a small book sized device that lets you access EVERYTHING within three clicks.

So it really matters NOT what the next Twitter will be, but who can bring that kind of interactivity and productivity at the most affordable price to the largest market. As always just my two cents (my 3am two cents that is!)...
