Bursting Twitter Hype
"Just 10% of Twitter users generate more than 90% of the content"
"growing faster than any other social network however ... more than half of all people using Twitter updated their page less than once every 74 days. And most people only ever "tweet" once during their lifetime, the researchers found."
"the most striking result was that so few people used the service to publish information, preferring instead to be passive consumers."
""The Harvard data says very, very few people tweet and the Nielsen data says very, very few people listen consistently"
' "Twitter is a broadcast medium rather than an intimate conversation with friends," he said. "It looks like a few people are creating content for a few people to read and share."Some "super users" can have thousands or even hundreds of thousands of followers.'
I think this is still good news for IM because the behavior they have found is the way I think IM uses Twitter. For the most part people follow and there's not much peronal interaction. If you consider a twitter feed as advertising directed at an audience, some of the total possible audience will see your ad and check out your product and then a percentage of them will actually purchase your product. The research shows that the membership for Twitter continues to grow so that means the amount of eyes on your product should continue to grow.
