It seems crazy that the media always seem to have something to say about Twitter. Yet, 99% of us don’t actually care.

Recently, BBC News published an article — ‘Fry ends row with Twitter critic‘. That’s fair enough … but is it really that news-worthy!? What is really annoying is that it is published under ‘Entertainment‘ (it’s not entertaining), and featured on ‘Technology‘ (it’s not really anything to do with technology), and mentioned on the front-page and  ‘UK‘ (where most people don’t care about Twitter [or Stephen Fry, for that matter]). Strangely, in the most suitable place, ‘Also in the News‘, it is not mentioned at all.

I’m not specifically attacking the BBC here (actually, I am): this problem is widespread. We don’t care about Twitter. We don’t care about individual tweets on Twitter. And we don’t care about ‘controversial‘ moves for people leaving Twitter. So, to all media: GET A GRIP!
