The pain that it solves is also solved by (i) turning on the radio (traffic), (ii)Google maps, (iii) visiting Pandora's blog. Additionally, Google is getting much faster with implementing real-time search results.
My conclusion is that Twitter solves a problem (which isn't as deep as a relevant search problem). Also, because twitter solves the problem, there's no room for the OneRiot's of the world.
- seasoup 17y ago(i) turning on the radio (traffic) maybe, if traffic is on right then and if they are covering this accident. Even then you only get one perspective, and that possibly filtered through several layers unless its from the guy in the chopper. ii)Google maps - tells you if there is traffic and is wrong 50% of the time. The 50% of the time I pay attention to it. (iii) visiting Pandora's blog - I highly doubt they managed to blog about this momentary outage. It was back up in under 5 minutes. Google is getting much faster with implementing real-time search results, but those results have to be added to the web in order to search them. And who adds these things to the web? Twitter users.
