Twitter’s Second Wave
by Andrew McCaskey
The Ars Technica article on “Twitter- Far More than what I had for lunch today” introduces the notion that Twitter is getting close to Crossing the Chasm from a marketing standpoint.
The classic early adopters and pioneers are just about finished popularizing the service, developing great tools such as Summize (now search.twitter.com ) Twitterific, Tweetdeck and others, and it’s starting to move into the Early Majority.
The adoption of the service by a Police Department, allowing communications via a variety of ways (web, SMS, iPhone App, etc) on traffic, crime watch, and announcements is one indication.
Another is the tweeting of job search info – and, as the service improves in the ability to scale, forestalling the Fail Whale – that means that even more applications will emerge. Not applications in the sense of client programs, but real world applications that make life a little easier, communications a little smoother, or bring together those who need to have one part of ther day that just works.
And at 140 characters, it’s introducing some brevity and simplicity as well.
That’s good.
