A DEEPER THOUGHT ABOUT TWITTER AS A MEDIA TOOL


This is all about my experience, analysis and my opinion about twitter. First of all let me differentiate Twitter and Facebook:

Twitter
Facebook
Its a media & social networking tool not only with known friends.
Mostly with known friends and apt for known environment
Mostly specific acceptance in not required.
Acceptance is mandatory
The way they tweet gets appreciated by reweet , reply.
They can like, share, comment
Mostly privacy is very liberally
Privacy setting is very much strict.
Top celebrities can be easily followed
Very narrow chance
Both entertainment and learning is possible
Very lean chance for learning, very much entertaining
Words limitation is challenging
No such limitation

According to my knowledge, In early days of twitter, I have followed so many big names in sports, film industry, media celebrities etc... I never thought of sharing my views unless so excited about the topic. Being sachin fan, I started twitter when his name created some headlines about twitter. Then also I followed twitter as an informative tool than an entertainment tool.

It was a new experience to read some information from anyone where it was rare to read or hear from any media source. Here, I viewed twitter only as an informative tool than a time pass.

It was until I have started following Tamil twitter where totally crowded with lot of creative people who were using this as a platform to throw their thoughts, healthy debates, like and dislikes of film actors etc....

Even now except few, it’s really interesting to read some of the tweets which carries deep meaning, comical expression of daily affairs such as politics, film actors opinions etc..... on the other side, I could also sense somebody got addicted towards this tool (so sad). Here, twitter's are rated with their amount of tweets, amount of followers, and kind of stuff they share...

Some of the observations of current trend...... here who tweets more is popular, have lot of follower, they are famous through their blogs, less of following, spending most of the time in tweeting than reading others..... People think alike and also contrarily... (EX-for a particular comment about any film actor or movie feedback I could see so many support each other and also many oppose)

This blog is registered to enforce a good media tool should be fully enjoyable with both informative and entertainable.  Personally I have high regards for this media tools because I am thoroughly impressed by some of the promising twitter who pass productive information with lot of fun.......

Its a wish that I must ever like twitter –like today. Its possible only by creation and innovation in place.
Whatever I have shared here is my opinion only, not to hurt anybody.......................
