Are you ingesting mass quantities of low-quality information?

Speaking about Twitter, the starting point of a powerful global conversations relevant to your network of followers, I today noticed the majority of AdAge articles mentioning this service.

The reasons I don't like twitter are many, more than anything the high amount of infobesity brought to the internet through the service.

"Ingestion of mass quantities of low-quality information"

In addition the fact that there is nothing innovative or new about the whole ordeal makes my toes twitch. For example see the screenshot of BBS services doing the same thing 15 years ago.

What other "soups cooked on old bones" opportunities VCs will bring the internet?

On this note I would like to mention a campaign from "Dentyne" - The Times. The campaign talks about the value of interacting and having a conversation, not in the midst of autonomicity and infobesity, but face to face.

Going back to the roots, this is new, this is hot, and we know it works!
