I must admit, I hate the way people add ‘Tw’ to the start of an existing word to describe it in context of Twitter (Eg Tweeple).

I’ve just written a post for my good pal Dave Harry at Huomah that analyses the recent Twitter scandal surrounding Kyle & Jackie O (who were famously dubbed Twitter wankers). In particular, I tackle the issue of the mass media mindset that most people bring to social environments, and the challenge it presents social media marketers.
