Nicole -- you raise some great questions. It is interesting to look at Twitter as a bell weather, as well as a communications device that allows people to give their own red-carpet-punditry. It seems, in some ways, that the full-contact and intimate nature of social technologies like Twitter are in fact emblematic of a larger cultural shift: more sharing, more public... dissolution of the private. Talking to folks in their 40s, 50s and 60s I've found that while some are interested and even participating in social media (if their childeren and/or jobs necessitate it), a greater percentage can't believe how "out there" people choose to be on platforms like Twitter and Facebook.

Again, thanks for looking below the surface and for linking to our report -- I am sending your post around to the New Media Strategies team as we speak :-)

All the best ~ L.
