More twitterings


I've been thinking some more about Twitter now I’ve started to use it. I’ve been amused to see a few ‘tweets’ suggesting the blogosphere is irrelevant now, and Twitter is the only place to be. I wonder if that’s indicative of an early adopter pattern? I blogged some time ago about a possible social media herd mentality. You know, Friendsreunited, then MySpace, Facebook, and now Twitter. Perhaps I was wrong about the human herd. Maybe early adopters are a different species altogether and move to fresh pastures as soon as they see the herd moving in? If that is the case that would be a shame as it implies they are only ever having a conversation amongst themselves. Hmm.
