Exitlog | Leaving Impressions

Blogs take a hit when there’s Twitter…

Status updates on Facebook, and the business networking sites such as LinkedIn, can be cumbersome in busy working week – even a bit tedious. A full blog entry can be even harder to face. Twitter, with its haiku-inspired 140 character limit, is often the easy answer.

Longer than a status update and shorter than a full entry, this micro-blogging format might just be perfect (for those in a rush). The ease and attraction of Twitter, especially with several good iPhone applications to help, has become the flavour of buzz marketing and instant news. Exitlog has certainly suffered in its wake. Other blogs surely must be feeling the pinch as well.
