Here's a question that Mashable brought up:

"Will Technorati, a long time leader in blog search, see its market share eaten up by an open, mobile text messaging platform?"

(Duh. Twitter.)

In case you didn't know - Twitter is a service for sharing text updates with friends proved itself a veritable rapid-transit system for breaking news, and soon it was this microcontent production house, not the blogosphere, that became the check-digit for the established blogging pro.

Anyhow.

As quoted:

Yes, Google Blog Search was a harsh blow for the once prominent blog search engine, but Technorati's greater failing was to turn a blind eye when the breaking conversation moved to a different medium: microblogging.

For those who aren't sure of the term "microblogging", according to Wikipedia:

Micro-blogging is a form of blogging that allows users to write brief text updates (usually less than 200 characters) and publish them, either to be viewed by anyone or by a restricted group which can be chosen by the user. These messages can be submitted by a variety of means, including text messaging, instant messaging, email, MP3 or the web.

Well. That's that. Moving along now...

What do you think? Did it really?

I mean, I Twitter. So does that mean I'll go full force into mirco-blogging?

Is a 140 letter restriction really sufficient for me to rant about what going on? Is there no more need to write long-winded entries about how one thing may s*x to it's ultimate core?

What's my point? Hmmm...

I guess after reading Mashable's entry, like 3 times over, I'm kinda confused. (Then again, I should really read the bottom half of the entry more clearly.)

What are we talking about anyway? The comparison of the fastest news source? Twitter has search engines?!

OMG! I feel anicent all of a sudden. What's Summize. Tweetscan and Terraminds?

Okay. Enough questions. I guess to summarize it all...

Yes, I guess Technorati's just about has to suffer a lose in their market share. I mean, even if it's not Twitter, I'm sure some other application is gonna be create or has already been creat that would.
