twittering is good for buzz marketing and list marketing.Blogging is for those who can write very well.

Completely agree with you. Twitter for me made blogging (the longer version that is) more enjoyable. I can now get more ‘hits’ as you say and basically share my thoughts better with people.

Blogging is serious business. You have proven that. Those who werent bloggers/were part time bloggers before twitter came into being, wont feel the urge to blog now. Twitter makes absolutely no difference to bloggers/non-bloggers (except as i said earlier, getting more hits).

I kind of half heartedly agree with what you’ve written!
But twitter is just a short message of update of one’s blog. Blog is an essay whereas twitter is can be classified as precis writing restricted to 140 characters. Now that twitter is coming up with new features, it is still not compared with blogging. Even today blogging and twitter are seen as two different favouring sites. It is inter-related and yet independent!

by no means twitter can kill blogging, it’s the platform where we share thoughts and promote our blog, its the medium of publicity ( frankly ). Both twitter and blogging are interconnected !

I agree with most/all of the commentary. Blogging & tweeting serve 2 different functions, and like most, I use Tweets to try and drive traffic to my blog. Heaven forbid if we had to limit all conversations and thought processes to just 140 characters!

Dear Shakthi,

I kinda agree with your 5 points, Web 2.0 is all about conversations. And twitter is the best tool for short n quick conversations.

Blog gives u better platforms to express (long texts, images, videos etc) but twitter gives you short and instant conversations.

Moreover Twitter is real time, whcih helps you in getting answers ASAP.

And coming to your topic, No Twitter is not going to replace Blogging. They will exist simultaneously, although the way twitter user are shouting together, it will make people use twitter more sensibly (following the people u need, want).
