Observations on Twitter, Noise, Filters, Spam, and Value

This video contains a lot of thoughts on Twitter and the value of Twitter… lately things have seemed really noisy, with a lot of content that I may not want to see, some spam thrown in for good measure, and some otherwise tech-savvy folks who engage in what I feel are questionable Twitter practices. I talk about the value in one’s Twitter stream along with particular behaviors which degrade the value, wrapping things up with some solutions (both technical and behavioral) that I feel will increase the value of Twitter for individuals. The video is a bit long (a little over 13 minutes) but I’m hoping folks will watch and comment. Let’s increase the value of microblogging for everyone!
