I read one market research report that revealed that nearly half of all tweets was "pointless babble." Only 9% had "pass-along value." Perhaps only 4% was "news." Okay, I'm a senior citizen, but I get Instant Messaging. I get MySpace, FaceBook and Friendster. Heck, I even get an occasional rap song, if the beat and melody are just right. But this SMS for the internet seems a bit too thinly clever -- a bit too much fad and flash in the pan, for my tastes. Maybe there's a Zen side to this. Anyone care to Enlighten me?
