It makes me wonder: Does he even talk to people outside the tech industry? 90% of people I know that aren't in software/technology think that Twitter is a retarded fad. While I don't agree with that, they have an enormous amount of credibility building to do within the non-technical community. I don't care if CNN or Fox News reads tweets during their "news" broadcasts. Twitter already has a retention problem, and Walter J. McTraditionalbusinessman isn't signing up for a Twitter account because Rupert Murdoch won't let Google index his results. He'll just search Google, and not find the WSJ's articles. edit: To be fair, you don't need to be a twitter user to view public tweets. I do think, however, there is a general skepticism about the service that won't end soon in the business world.
