Lighter side: Tweeting from the throne
October 13, 2009 by Sam NarisiPosted in: In this week's e-newsletter, Latest News & Views
Seems like many Twitter users would qualify as addicted to using the site.
Many users update their profiles constantly, even in dangerous or inappropriate situations. Most frighteningly, 11% of users admit they’ve Tweeted while driving at least once in the past 30 days, according to a recent survey by Crowd Science. About 30% have done so at some point in the past.
And in the safe but inappropriate vein: 17% said they’ve logged on to Twitter from the toilet.
The survey also found that 8% have done so from a movie theater, and 31% from a restaurant. Possibly the saddest finding: 41% of Twitter users prefer to contact their friends via Twitter than over the phone.
Given those situations, do you think many of your company’s employees spend a lot of time on Twitter while working?
