There are so many resources out there for information to get on the Internet and the most recent are blogs and microblogging. Blogs like this one for instance can be found all over the web about anything from cooking to political debate.
Just this past Superbowl Sunday microblogging was a huge piece of the action. Twitter is namely the largest microblogging entity at the moment. During the final three minutes of the Superbowl there was an average of over 10,000 tweets per second. That is an enormous amount of information floating through the virtual universe. On CNN.com in an article about last nights game, they referred to Twitter as the new "virtual water-cooler."
With Twitter taking over the sports arena, it is also taking over the whole market in general! Next year it is predicted that 39% of advertisers will use Twitter for their ad-campaigns in 2012. That's an enormous amount, considering a few years ago Twitter didn't even exist.
Twitter has taken over, and this microblogging phenom can only go up from here!
