Tweet This: 19 Percent of Internet Users Use Twitter
According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project , 19 percent of Internet users now say they use Twitter or another service to share updates about themselves, or to see updates about others. This represents a significant increase over previous surveys conducted in December 2008 and April 2009, when 11 percent of internet users said they used Twitter or another micro-blogging service. Three groups of Internet users are responsible for driving the growth of this activity: social networking site users, mobile Internet users, and adults under age 44. In addition, the more devices someone owns, the more likely they are to use Twitter or another service to update their status. Fully 39 percent of Internet users with four or more internet-connected devices (such as a laptop, cell phone, game console, or Kindle) use Twitter, compared to 28 percent of Internet users with three devices, 19 percent of Internet users with two devices, and 10 percent of Internet users with one device. The median age of a Twitter user is 31, which has remained stable over the past year

Google Squared Adds Some Improvements
This past summer I reviewed the new Google Squared , and came away interested but somewhat disappointed — Google Squared missed information on several of the tests I tried and sometimes inserted irrelevant information. I came away planning not to use it anymore but with a renewed appreciation for a completely different Google product: Google Sets. Google recently announced some improvments to Google Squared, so I thought I’d take another look. Google Squared is available at http://www.google.com/squared . The new improvements are supposed to include improved quality of information, four times as much data (up to 120 facts in a square), and information filtered for better quality. I started with my query chocolate bars . Google Squared gave me a long list of candy bars

Did You Tweet About Michael Jackson’s Death?
Michael Jackson via last.fm This past week or so has been pretty traumatic for some, what with the losses of Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, Billy Mays, and of course, Michael Jackson. Up until the #moonfruit promotion had started (Tweeters would use the hashtag for a chance to win a free Macbook Pro), Michael Jackson or some version thereof was the top trending topic on Twitter after his untimely death. So I give you, dear readers, this poll: Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post’s poll. The reason I ask is because I happened to notice that many people truly did not send out even one single tweet about Michael Jackson. Sure, there were plenty of people being what I consider to be rude or disrespectful with their tasteless jokes and such… but I am honestly curious as to the percentages of people who did and did not tweet about “MJ” (as that was also in the trending topics, aside from his full name) after his passing
