Bored with Twitter?


According to estimates by Neilson, 60% Of Twitter Users Quit After A Month. Now that was I guess, pretty obvious. Adding to the bad news for twitter further is that its social networking peers MySpace and Facebook are presently maintaining a much higher percentage of their new users each month -- approx 60%.

But then there is a catch in Neilson estimates: He is only measuring visits to the Twitter.com URL. Majority of Tweeeeeets are via mobile phones and other applications such as Tweetdeck...Hmmm further adding to the good news for twitter is that its 40% retention rate is higher than it was a month ago.

Personally I am not finding twitter very attractive ): May be will find it interesting after few weeks or months down the line :)
