Less is More: The Tweeted revolution

This is not a post. These are 140 words or fewer, tweets. Collected in laziness …I repeat.. in laziness..

…a research study conducted by Harvard. Twitter remains the preserve of a few, despite the hype surrounding it.

And thus, the media’s one time lust for perfectionistic reporting has disintegrated into a demand for an expeditious spring of answers — all in 140 characters.

Twitter, twitter, twitter that’s all I hear. I am told how great it is and that it would be the end of civilization without it.

What might democracy become in the age of Social Media?

All in all, while it's probably too early to tell whether Moldova's Twitter revolution will be successful…
