That is a positive outcome from this "saga" that I hadn't really thought of. Though, I don't think consultants could walk into a boardroom and say Oprah and and Ashton are on Twitter...why aren't you? no problem, and thanks for doing the great post. That is a positive outcome from this “saga” that I hadn’t really thought of.

I was inspired by a newspaper article interviewing people who were concerned that celebs had taken over and that the masses joining twitter will ruin it. The one subtle impact beyond the additional fail whale sightings is that this could bring in a lot more legitimate users - not just the folks who want to follow Oprah. In that sense I think it's more positive than neutral. Thanks for the comment! Spot on Chuck – You said it with a lot less words than I did.

Oprah is on Twitter. So is Ashton Kutcher. So are a bunch of other celebs that are using Twitter as a broadcasting mechanism and not as a way to initiate conversations with like-minded individuals. If it is their choice to join Twitter and do that why should I care? I am not going to follow them because I’m using Twitter to talk with like-minded folks. If the “masses” want to join Twitter and follow Oprah, who are we to say that they shouldn’t? If Oprah and other celebs have any impact on Twitter it will happen on a macro level. It will probably help to further the push to make Twitter mainstream (if it isn’t already). But I don’t think it will impact my experience on Twitter, or yours, or anybody else’s (with the exception of seeing the “whale” a few more times).
