Tweety Bird Would Never Believe This.
Everybody is talking about Twitter and suddenly there are instant Twitter experts popping up everywhere, Celebrities, politicians, entrepreneurs, business leaders and everyday users are flocking to the service en masse, generating a frenzy of activity and attention. So why are people flocking to Twitter? Evan Williams, Twitters CEO has the answer:
“Twitter lets people know what’s going on about things they care about instantly, as it happens, In the best cases, Twitter makes people smarter and faster and more efficient.”
A survey of Twitter users from MarketingProfs, a US based research company, backs Mr. Williams’ views. On a scale from 1 to 5 (with 1 for strongly disagree and 5 and for strongly agree), the phrase “I find it exciting to learn new things from people” averaged a score of 4.65 and “I value getting information in a timely manner” averaged 4.58.
“Above all, people on Twitter are truly motivated by learning new things and getting information real-time, as it’s developing,” said Ann Handley of MarketingProfs.
With Twitter growing at over 1,086% per year, it’s expected that Twitter will have over 18.1 million users in the US by this time next year and at that rate, the entire Australian on line audience will be using Twitter, ohh just imagine the noise then!!
