Twitter is still a really small village – #smclondon08

Posted by: Jure Cuhalev In: ideas

At the SocialMediaCamp London ‘08, I noticed an interesting side effect of having such “huge” amount of SNS geeks together – we have totally overthrown the Twitter. Even before the breakfast fully began, #smclondon08 hash-tag was already top trending topic and it continues to be so through out the day. At the time of the writing (3/4 of day done), we’ve already posted 600+ Tweets.

I guess the good side of this gathering is that we now effectively measured the size of Twitter-sphere and how much buzz it takes to become a trending topic and get attention of others.

Makes me wonder just what kind of mischief you could get up to with a few hash tags. Like flash mobbing but on Twitter. Twit-mobbing..?
