As the title indicates, how do you see the short term and long term future not only of the websites themselves but the users as well.
1. Will twitter introduce charges?
My opinion: I feel a small fee after a month or so might keep the majority of members, a pound or a fiver maybe - look at Friends Reunited, originally join for a fiver.
2. How many members stop posting after a while and become inactive?
My opinion: For me I'm not sure, I think like all forums the active members is relatively low - does anyone have any stats on this?
3. Is this a fad that will die out?
My Opinion: Maybe for twitter will die down or change it's media model but not for business social websites or networking sites like Linkedin I think will remain strong, I get more satisfaction from Linkedin but that maybe because I'm B2B where as twitter is ideal for B2C
I've opened a group on Linked regarding this topic, let me know your thoughts. Search for iainwilliams or ibwsolutions
Do you see Social media networking as work or social?
