I’d Rather Have Adults on Twitter than Teens say Twitter Owner

In a recent CNN interview with Twitter CEO Evan Williams, he said that if he were to be given a choice, he would rather have adults on the micro-blogging platform than teenagers. He added on by saying that Twitter is not a social networking website, and the main focus of the San Francisco-based company is real-time information of the things you care about — work, industry, company, news.
Recently, statistics have shown that teens don’t use Twitter and the Twitterverse is dominated by young adults between the age of 18-34.

Teens Have One Focus In Mind – Friends and Not Political News



There’s no doubt that today’s generation of teenagers are tech-savvy. It’s a common sight to see teens spending a huge portion of their time on Facebook, blogging and Instant Messengers. These share a common denominator – friends. By using these social networking platforms, teens are able to interact and connect with our friends online after school. For example, they can share their views, thoughts and opinions of a particular issue on their MSN’s personal message, Facebook Wall, personal blogs and many more.
Although it’s possible to make the micro-blogging “private”, but unfortunately, the culture of Twitter is all about participation in a large public square. Dubbed as an “epicenter of world events”, Twitter is filled with lots of news and information. Everyone on Twitter has become a web journalist, breaking news at a much faster pace and probably higher accuracy as compared to traditional media. What’s more is that many Internet marketers and bloggers tend to use the service as a marketing tool to publish their articles or products.
Do you think many teens out there really care much about what’s happening in the recent Iran presidential election and the latest news in both the physical and technological worlds? Honestly speaking, they don’t really bother much about all these stuff. What they are interested in are games and friends. Besides that, Twitter doesn’t offers a threaded conversation feature unlike Facebook. Therefore, teens prefer to use Facebook and MySpace rather than Twitter.

Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photo Google Android

By
The Google Android powered smartphones by HTC. Their first attempt with mix, the HTC T-Mobile G1, didn't quite had the eye candyish stuff and get a big fan following. And even though Google announced an unlocked Android G1 around the 2008 holidays, people still preferred the iPhone 3G. Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photos of a new handset which appear to be quite authentic. The first thing you would notice here is its shiny plastic finish, which is very much welcoming from the pale gray look on G1. Also this time around there is not physical keyboard present, which is a little disappointing. Though the touchscreen is large, but we know the current Android interface had some issues. The back side has a new surprise A 3.2 Mega Pixel camera, though even mid range phones for vendors like Nokia boast a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera these days. What would be interesting is the video capabilities of the G2 (if there are any). The current rumors suggest that this handset would hit the shelves...
