At the moment, there is a lot of buzz around social media like Twitter. Keyword is “democratizing information”. Social media users are forming new communities with their own rules and “social speak”. There are even web sites like Klout that calculate how much influence you have in social media (when I test my Twitter user account, it says that it has not indexed my tweets, yet).

This is an interesting phenomenon that I am trying to study and understand. Maybe, it is possible to generate something entirely new.
