The problem is that with such a small amount of space, you can't tell what's credible and what's not unless you already know who's right... I trust @BullshitQuantum only because I can check a fair number of its calls. How is anybody not trained in quantum mechanics supposed to tell @BullshitQuantum's takes from the hundreds more that actually are bullshit?
Fixed it for you man! Really, the only purpose twitter serves is as the comments section people removed because everyone in the comments section was slinging poo at OP. And they're removing this, the one truly useful thing twatter does, because journalist types are head cases who think larping and carping on twitter is real life.
Twitter's strength is it appears peer to peer, twitters weakness is it isn't at all.

Twitter's good for simple pieces of news, witty quips, and putdowns. That's about it. You can't actually communicate complex, novel ideas in 280 characters, and you still can't in 2800. The only redeeming feature of Twitter that draws these commentators to it is that all journalists are addicted to it, so your one-liners might get you some fame. People have made careers out of that.
