Julianne Miranda on 30 Sep 09I disagree with this article - first, there isn't sufficient data, and I think it all depends in how Twitter is used. I tend to think of Twitter as more of a collection space of ideas and links. What I think is flawed in the research is that Twitter doesn't provide context (source of previous knowledge) or sufficient data for the brain to chunk or organize. I think the author is comparing the effectiveness of a wrench and a hammer while viewing a nail.
