Just curious... I think that Twitter has become a way for news junkies to gather and exchange information--some of my favorite tweets to follow are from news organizations. I'm not ready to call it mainstream yet...1 million users is still a drop in the bucket. I'll consider it mainstream when I stop hearing "what the hell is a Twitter?" :-) Jen Very interesting…random question, why was Mumbai making up .5 percent of blog posts on Nov. 1? Just curious…

I have followed the CNN twitter feed since I joined a little more than a year ago and I love it. They do an exceptional job of getting the news in the concise microblogging fomat and are extremely fast- they almost always beat my WSJ e-mails. Great post- thanks.
