Users are highly critical of a what is essentially free service. I'm neutral on Twitter (although a continuous user), but it's clear the shift is moving to instantaneous snippets. I have no problem hearing what people have for lunch, or whatever. It helps make the network real. I think the aggregators will be the winners. Insular spaces like Plurk will be fads and fade, unless they open up. Having said all this, I agree, I think Twitter will get better. It's the future. p.s.: congrats on the award!

It gives me a really good signal-to-noise ratio right now. I have be-friended (in real life) many of my Twitter friends. I have a decent (2:1) follower/follow ratio (those whom I don't follow, it's not because I don't want to, but I have a limited capacity to interact). I admire people like Colleen and Rebecca who follow LOTS of people, yet are still able to be "on the ball" when a friend tweets them. You are also usually very good at it. I may miss sometimes tweets. Overall, I am sure Twitter will get better soon :) As a non-Facebook adopter, I have long praised Twitter. It gives me a really good signal-to-noise ratio right now.
