"A blog is a Web site, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events."[wikipedia] I would argue that twitter is actually a type of blogging. But even further than that, I really don't think Twitter is killing anything: "Something I’ve noticed over the past few months...is bloggers being less active while spending more time on Twitter...is Ttwitter] delivering a one-two knock-out punch to blogs and blogging?"[article] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slippery_slope http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slippery_slope A) Many people are switching from blogging to Twitter. THEREFORE B) Twitter is killing blogs. The author gives no specific evidence other than anecdotal references to people that are switching, and one business that benefitted from twitter. There are many ways that twitter is better than blogging, but also many ways it is worse. The people that are switching are the ones that had messages that fit Twitter's style. Twitter's brevity seems to me to be more suited to stating positions than stating the issues.
