Random Thoughts

Is the key to successful social-networking that the network should be broad but shallow? This is exactly what has made Twitter a huge success. Twitter has discovered that people want condensed, fast, information, in a 140 characters or less. Why does it seem so narcissistic? Does writing with 140 characters mean that you can't say anything substantial, which means no one can know if you have any substance? Is it like talking without the burden of having to say anything?

Just a thought...
