Nielsen Study says Twitter sucks
 

An update on the Nielsen study that revealed Twitter's too-low retention rate: After receiving some feedback and criticism, Nielsen updated the study to include applications and services that feed into Twitter (such as Tweetdeck and Tumblr). The results were unchanged. "The results verified our initial findings: about 60 percent of people on Twitter end up abandoning the service after a month."

I stopped doing it. It's beyond stupid. I'm not even sure why I tried it, I thought it was dumb before I even started.

No one is interested on Twitter that I just took a shiat? Hmm...

I think it is obvious after a few minutes that twitter's appeal is limited.

Twitter is great if you use it with your friends.
All those "marketing gurus" miss the point entirely. Twitter is social media. You cannot spam on there or make money from it. Just like on facebook.

it is a total waste of time


the thing that bothered me is how the White House got a twitter page so quickly.....

shouldn't the government be a little more discriminating before putting their backing behind a private website? :2 cents:

<---- said twitter sucked back in 2007 :)

Ha ha. Tell that to my wallet.

It's WAY harder to sell things to people when you know every single one of their interests.
