1) Shift from ʻtweetingʼ to ʻsearchingʼ
![Page 3: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
As more users sign up, the signal-to-noise ratio
is dropping.
![Page 4: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Increasingly the only way to find useful
information will be the Twitter search tool.
![Page 5: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
2) Twitter will menace Google
![Page 6: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
There have been many pretenders to the
Google search throne
![Page 7: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
But Twitter offers much more:
• Near realtime results• Human filtered• Follow search topic Tweets• Twitter ‘trending’ topics
![Page 8: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
3) Three types of users will emerge
![Page 9: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Blabbers will continue to ‘bla bla bla’ about
what they had for lunch
![Page 10: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sifters will use Twitter to check the word on the
‘street’ and news.
![Page 11: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Broadcasters will keep pumping out Tweets,
possibly losing followers along the way.
![Page 12: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4) Automated tool use to increase
![Page 13: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Many tweets are links to interesting articles and posts
![Page 14: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Automated tools can now do this autonomously
![Page 15: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
This will eventually erode the amount of genuine interaction
with followers
![Page 16: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Some prominent Twitter users are
even using ‘Ghost’ Tweeters
![Page 17: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
5) Twitter to become news powerhouse
![Page 18: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Twitter users have reported from plane
crashes, terror attacks and natural disasters.
![Page 19: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
This ‘citizen journalism’ has grown Twitter’s value as a news source immensely
![Page 20: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
There is no guarantee traditional news sources
can keep up
![Page 21: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
6) Twitter ʻgated communitiesʼ
![Page 22: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Recently Twitter has suffered from increasing spam and frivolous users
![Page 23: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Just as users can secure their updates, groups of users could create their own Twitter ‘secured’
neighbourhoods
![Page 24: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
7) Twitter will fracture
![Page 25: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Twitter has many potential paths for future
development
![Page 26: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
This may lead it to split out current functionality into separate services
![Page 27: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
For example: Search, News, Micro-blogging
![Page 28: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
8) Powered by Twitter
![Page 29: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
We are likely to see more 3rd parties adapting the
Twitter platform to launch new services/applications
![Page 30: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Microsoft’s ExecTweets is a great example of this:www.exectweets.com
![Page 31: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
9) Twitter Pro
![Page 32: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
There has been much regarding a potential Twitter Pro account
![Page 33: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Features of a pro account could include:
•Improved security•Automation•Better user/follower interaction•Twitter activity statistics
![Page 34: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
A pro account could provide a viable business model for Twitter, funding expansion & development
![Page 35: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
10) Beyond 140 Characters
![Page 36: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
It’s possible that Twitter might break the sacred 140 character limit on
user updates.
![Page 37: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
This opens the door for different content types to be uploaded to Twitter directly
![Page 38: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
If users can consume a variety of media on Twitter, they will spend more time there. We know that loyalty is an issue for Twitter, this could help.
![Page 39: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
11) Contextual Advertising
Bonus Trend!
![Page 40: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
It would seem Twitter is exploring the use of text ads
![Page 41: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
This would work quite well with content in user-streams
or even in your status
![Page 42: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
This would also work very well with Twitter search, and really turbo-charge Twitter’s
business potential
![Page 43: 10 Twitter Future Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5405f0088d7f72a6768b4fcc/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
- Thatʼs It. Thanks for your attention -
