Twitter continues to be on everybody's mind (April 21-27 2008):

• Louis Gray came up with some interesting number crunching on the "Twitter Noise Ratio", defined as the (total) number of updates for a user divided by the (current) number of followers. Listeners have a noise ratio less than one, "normal" people around one, and megaphones or fire hoses above 5. My ratio is 1, putting me in the normal group, but I will soon become a fire hose unless I get some more followers, which points to one weakness of the definition. Interesting attempt anyhow.
