The Evolution of Twitter Usage


Link to January 5 emarketer article, "The Evolution of Twitter Usage". (A misleading title in that the article quickly skims across the surface of the topic."

Excerpt: Tweeting is still a relatively niche phenomenon among the population as a whole, with a Pew Internet & American Life Project survey indicating just 8% of US web users participate in the service. But those users may be developing a deeper relationship with the site that will keep it a vibrant community for marketers.
