I don't have any contacts on Twitter, nor do I interest in telling people what I do every minute, so I only use it to follow the breaking news feeds, which is pretty cool.

                Thayer Driver has done a great survey of Twitter behaviour....her heads up <A href="http://thayer18.livejournal.com/10903.html">on her blog over here</A> is:</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://broadstuff.com/archives/757-On-Twitterquette.html"> People mainly use Twitter mostly to see what their contacts are up to (50.6%).
- Most respondents to this survey are followed by twice the amount of people (101-200 followers) than they follow themselves (51-100 followers).
- You’re most likely to become un-followed if your Tweets aren’t deemed relevant to your followers</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://broadstuff.com/archives/757-On-Twitterquette.html">
Relevance is a big thing, clearly - both volume and value - and I suspect its the belated realisation by early adopters that the contents of their lunchbag etc are of minimal interest to others that has driven what to me is Twitter's greatest shift over the last year, i.e. people actually starting to talk about useful stuff and not the drivel it initially sarted with.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/BD4330DF-F0A0-4D49-BF41-6F0DC9C706E3/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
