> I agree that Twitter is a poor medium for writing. But Twitter gives you an audience (and retweets). Does it though? I have a blog and occasionally tweet. My blog gets about 30 hits on an average day, mainly through search engines. If I tweet, I get maybe 20 impressions. And those impressions are all that I get, nobody goes back and reads 6 month old tweets and there is no way to search for them.
