I see people writing about twitter a lot. Its everywhere...twitter this and twitter that. The reality is that so few people use twitter I dont know why its even a story. Twitter has less then 200K UU according to Quantcast. This means there are roughly 11,000 sites that have more traffic. Its no where close to mainstream.

No, there aren't a lot of people Twittering in the larger universe. But the influencers are, and it's getting traction. Whether it's Twitter and its many offshoots and addenda and integrators (anything from TwitPic to Friendfeed to Twirhl...) or another technology, the cloud is forming and we'll see a lot of use of handhelds in short bursts, posting and communicating in multiple direction. Maybe Twitter's already jumped the shark?
