“A culture filled with bloggers thinks differently about politics or public affairs, if only because more have been forced through the discipline of showing in writing why A leads to B…” (Lessig). If blogging gets us thinking socially / conversationally, engaging in and through personal philosophies with others around us, microblogging (i.e. twittering) gets us thinking socially on-the-fly, encouraging us to cut through flourishes and decorations to get to the point. What we need to watch out for of course is that we do not turn out into a culture of people walking around talking in elevator pitches.

“Despite the relative ease of creating a web page and putting it somewhere online in 1996 (GeoCities was an online community that hosted such pages and had millions of users at one point), online conversation really began on the web with the advent of blogs.”

USENet (the current major instantiation is Google Groups) has been around much longer than blogs, allowing users the ability to carry on online conversations.

You’re absolutely right about Twitter not differentiating “value”. But I don’t try to “manage” people I follow. I trust that I will see what I need to see, and if I missed it I really haven’t “missed” anything. I use the search function to find like-minded people and it’s yielded a joint venture opportunity and some interesting and insightful info
