Business expert Thomas Power, entrepreneur, founder of Ecademy, professional speaker and social media expert, explains why he expects Twitter to become the dominant online business development tool in the near future.
“What is Twitter, what’s it going to be, where’s it going?
I think the thing about Twitter is I see Twitter like a coffee shop. And I see Google like a library. And you need both.
You go to the library to get books and get information and look stuff up. And you go to the coffee shop to talk, to chat, to kick things around, to gossip, to hear what’s going on. And I think when you define the news, news is what people are talking about right now.
What people are talking about right now is on Twitter, and arguably Is Twitter. So Twitter is the new news, as well as being the news inside the news. So it’s like the the new coffee shop and the talk that’s going on inside the coffee shop."
