- The Twitter Advertiser Exodus – Caterina.net caterina.net
A lot of the posts I’ve read about companies leaving Twitter talk about trust and safety issues, and some about ideology, some ideological leavers fleeing after the reinstatement of Trump. But from a purely practical standpoint, this post is a pretty damning[...]

The speed with which Twitter recedes in your mind will shock you. Like a demon from a folktale, the kind that only gains power when you invite it into your home, the platform melts like mist when that invitation is rescinded.

- Datasift - Tuning Your Tweets datasift.net
Gives developers the ability to leverage cloud computing to build very precise streams of data from the millions and millions of tweets sent everyday.
Despite marketers' embrace of the medium, brands are finding themselves on the outside of the conversation. Of the 90% of Twitter messages sent by real people -- the other 10% come from businesses -- only 12% ever mention a brand, and most of those mentions are of Twitter itself. Further, only 1% of consumer tweets that mention a brand are part of an active conversation with that brand, meaning marketers are, for the most part, conducting one-way conversations -- the opposite of the way consumers often use Twitter.

- Give me ad-free conversations, or give me death (please RT) techcrunch.com
Human conversation is the last area of communication to hold out against the relentless march of commercialisation and it’s our duty, as humans, to make sure it stays that way. So, screw consensus. And shame on me for starting to lean towards it yesterday. Give me ad-free conversation, or give me death.

Twitter is becoming an ever present backchannel at conferences and events. However sometimes it needs curating and moderating, especially if it's to be displayed large as a part of the event. Here we talk about an app built in a few hours and open sourced today which we used for this purpose for The Guardian's Activate Summit.

"Hopefully one day Twitter will stop growing stupidly fast and their engineers can spend some time, you know, adding features like exposing favourites (which might even help eliminate the scourges of “retweeting” and trending topics.) I’m not holding my breath, though." Hear him, hear him.

- Topspin » Twitter Emerges as a Viable Direct Marketing Channel topspinmedia.com
In the first day of release, Twitter lead the traffic drivers to the Jimmy Eat World site, with more than 22% of all traffic coming straight outta Twitterland. Twitter was third as a driver of revenue, though, driving just over 20% of all sales. Still, with the large number of people reached, and email a smaller percentage of total sales in this campaign than we see on average, it’s very reasonable to conclude that Twitter was a meaningful driver of incremental revenue.

- Twitter Traffic Explodes...And Not Being Driven by the Usual Suspects! (comScore Voices) comscore.com
Reuters reporter Alexei Oreskovic recently authored an interesting blog post about the demographics of Twitter users. What he discovered was that 18-24 year olds, the traditional social media early adopters, are actually 12 percent less likely than average to visit Twitter (Index of 88). It is the 25-54 year old crowd that is actually driving this trend.

- Extending Albion’s Oven hiddenchemistry.com
"There’s something delightfully Wallace and Gromitey about Poke’s BakerTweet, but not content with its floury goodness I decided to hack it around a bit. I’ve put together an app which takes the feed from Albion’s Twitter account, checks for updates, filters them (I’m only really interested in bread), and if (according to Fire Eagle) I’m within a mile of the bakery, sends me an SMS." Beautiful.
