The Twitter Global Mind
If you are having a hard time understanding all the Twitter hype, this video gives a visual explainer on Twitter’s search value, as it relates to a new contemporary thought stream.
The video attempts to visualize the power of contemporaneous search returns, a scenario Google and other search giants have not tackled. Understanding Twitter and Facebook’s contribution to the internet is an important step in understanding the next phase of the web, as it will be happening right in front of our eyes. This is the heart of the real-time web.
Every now and then, when we do a Rocketboom episode like this, I worry that we focus a little too much on the tech industry but Andrew really nails it with this one. Concise and insightful, this is easily one of my favorite Andrew Baron scripts.
and this is me watching this glad I’m not such a twat for using it. Thanks Rocketboom.
