Michael Arrington believes Twitter’s present market value of $250 million U.S. is more than justified. It isn’t just a place to post short status updates. Rather, because of the software’s rapid adoption as a microblogging tool, it has become a valuable repository of data. The potential value of Twitter lies in the ability to search this information.
One person commented on this post as follows:
“I’ve been saying that for the past 6 months. I use it to search for things before searching Google.”
We certainly all know how valuable Google Search is as a performance support and learning tool. Could Twitter be next to fulfill this need? To search Twitter, try search.twitter.com. (RN)
