Got Twitter
I just got Twitter. I got it on my cell phone. Suddenly it makes sense.
On my computer, I can always get more information via e-mail, instant messenger, blogs. I don’t need tweets to learn about Iowa floods; I get it from Drudge. I don’t need conference twitterblogging when there’s liveblogging and, yes, live video streaming. Twitter can’t compete on detail nor depth of these channels.
On mobile screen, though, the experience couldn’t be different.
I am not a masochist to fire up Internet Explorer and try to scroll right, left, top, and down on AJAXed web pages where half of the stuff doesn’t work because of missing plug-ins, flash, etc., all that on miserable EDGE speeds. If I can have a status update, though, a teeeny bit that I can get back to later, a tweet can do that.
Hmmm.
I wonder about the adoption rates of desktop vs web vs mobile clients. Is the mobile community growing any faster, by any chance? Too late to find out right now, but I’ll get back to you later.
Not exactly an early adopter, am I.
