Social Media and Personality Disorders :o)
I love the graphic, and think that the intersection with twitter (I like to call it tweeter) in the middle is about right.
Which personality disorder do you frequent? :o)

Hi Ken, Wow ... what a coincidence. Someone e-mailed me this earlier today. I think this chart gives twitter too much credit. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see twitter as being a long-lasting stand-alone business. It's more like an interesting feature that could be included in a broader social networking play. Also, sheesh, is there really that much of a market for minute-by-minute updates from the Average Joe? Best, Marty
Too funny! (And Honey, it's Twitter, not Tweeter. :)
I'm with Marty. Although I'm on Twitter, I don't find it as useful or as versatile as Facebook. I find that I like maintaining my blog, Facebook is a nice supplement (easy to quickly add a video or article), and Twitter is just sort of a silly, quick update. I can see it losing its appeal quickly, at least for me.
My ADHD interferes with my ability to focus long enough to open a Twitter account; however, my narcissism pushes me to Twitter just so I can stalk Denzel Washington, assuming that he's on Twitter.

The graphic is great, I LOL'd when I read it. I have already grown tired of my twitter.
