Twitter - Who's Using It and How?

RawAlex · 05-04-2009

Twitter is pretty much a black hole. Retention levels are super low, and with the recent Oprah / Kutcher horseshit, it pretty much jumped the shark right there.

If you write tweets and they are spammy, you are toast, you lose are your readers. If you don't make it spammy enough, then you are just wasting your time.

The clock reads 14:59 on twitter. The 15 minutes is almost up.

Twitter is the logical conclusion of the narcissistic orgy all these "social networking sites" represent - millions of people screaming "LOOK AT ME!!!!!" and not looking at anyone else.

We had an unpublicized live chat with a fairly well known model recently, she didn't even post it up in her members area, just a kinda dry run with the site's immediate traffic.

She decided to post about it on her twitter and boom, room filled up even more.

Can be a good thing if you have a fan base...
