Dave Winer got me thinking. As he regularly does. "Why there will be many Twitters."
Twitter is a vast, amorphous group of people most of which I have ZERO interest in. There's just too much and it's overwhelming. It is also taking away valuable time from my Google Reader, which is where I learn the most. In Google Reader, I am subscribed to around 200 RSS feeds. I have selected them. I don't see anything else, just them. I can focus, read and learn. Twitter is like standing in front of machine gun fire. You don't stand a chance!
So more special-interest Twitter networks are interesting. Ones where it's only news. Or only music. Or only entertainment. Or only women. I like the last idea a lot.
