Google+ has completely supplanted Twitter as a news source for me. With G+, you get actual paragraphs of information (often with pictures, etc). If there's a link, it's a real link, not one of those stupid damn shortened urls's (I REALLY hate those). With Twitter, a cryptic 100 character "message" and a url shortened link.

Good riddance to Twitter. G+ has a lot of room for improvement, but Twitter's lack of usability is mind boggling.
