  1. “Ce n'est pas la même chose de 'follower' (suivre) sur Twitter que de 'liker' (aimer) sur Facebook. Le lien est plus affectif. L'audience est aussi plus captive.”

  2. “The first rule of Twitter is that talking about yourself makes the tool work better. The upshot is a narcissism so democratized that users don’t have to feel guilty about it and, in fact, barely notice it.”

  3. ““We’ve certainly resonated with a lot of people,” says Dorsey. “But does that mean that we’ve arrived and can never go down? Absolutely not.””

  4. “A study conducted by sociologists working for Yahoo concluded that 50 percent of all the tweets come from just 20,000 users. “It’s really dominated by this media-celebrity-blogger elite,” says Duncan Watts, one of the researchers. “It’s a small number of users who are hyperconnected, and then there’s everybody else just paying attention to those people.””

  5. “My current favourite fact about human civilisation is that fully 3% of all activity on Twitter consists of conversations about Bieber.”

  6. “SocialFlow is a social media platform that essentially teaches brands how to use Twitter most effectively. And they actually do more than that — they use data analysis to use Twitter most effectively on their behalf. Brands come up with the tweets they want to send out, then send them SocialFlow’s way so they can determine the best time to tweet.”

  7. ““It’s a cool browser bookmarklet that lets you highlight what you read and share it with a click on Twitter.”

  8. “There has been an obsessive hunt by the media to discover who UK Uncut “really are.” They assume there must be secretive leaders pulling the strings somewhere. But the more I dug into the movement, the more I realized this is a misunderstanding. The old protest movements were modeled like businesses, with a CEO and a managing board. This protest movement, however, is shaped like a hive of bees, or like Twitter itself. There is no center. There is no leadership. There is just a shared determination not to be bilked, connected by tweets”

  9. “Twitter was just posting your status. Look at what happens when you are so specific that you can go really deep, and build a product around one feature.”

  10. “Twitter's 140 characters feels silly at this point”
