I wonder now if that stat about 60% of twitter users still applies today since more and more people are beginning to understand the purpose of twitter.

Those 60 percent who don't return are likely following people who tweet words like "work and "bored." They're probably doing the same with their accounts and grow bored quickly.

People love Twitter or hate it. I have heard "Why do I care about what someone else is doing all day?" so many times. I suppose it takes an open mind and patience to find pleasure in Twitter.

I would like to see more recent and accurate results from the April study, however I understand it would be difficult, because so many people use Tweetdeck and mobile devices.

Work, home,sleep, lunch, and love - what better words to describe beautiful life we have to share on Twitter. I should add one more very important word that must be abundantly tweeted as weel : TRAVEL!

Thanks for the post!

I have been on twitter for over 7 months now and I simply love it! Thanks to tweeps that help me spread my reach by adding 200+ tweeps to my followers count everyday.

lots of comments before me questioning this.
one more thing, on a strictly analytical point of view. the fact that the most frequent posts include "work", "home", "lunch" and "sleep" mainly means, that this is what everyone does. in no case does it mean that this all what we do. while only a certain percentage of a population plays guitar, another percentage snowboards, and a thirs plays tennis, hundred percent of people eat, sleep and go to work.
i have a feeling this study doesn't really reveal anything beyond the very obvious

I mostly tweet about things I'm reading, but I just link to what I'm reading (w/out saying I'm reading)

pretty sure the most common words on my account are 'book' 'lit' 'read' 'characters' ... and probably 'intriguing' because I love that word! :)

we were quite curious after reading your post as to why we tweet even though we have no followers.

so far one year of tweets.

maybe we just need to purge ourselves.

We are all sheep. We each have our nose in the ass of the one in front of us while the nose of the one behind us has his or her nose in ours. The only ones without their noses in the ass of another are the very few at the very front of the herd. That's why life stinks like shit to all but a very few of us.

pretweeting's been fun but oftentimes, the winner has just been bidding on day-cycle words at the appropriate times.

Any study would have to consider the difficulty in tweeting while doing things like mountain climbing or having sex. It's simply not as easy to do...

I disagree!

At Socks for Happy People we tweet about cool socks and happiness!

If there's anything we're not, it's mundane!
