thanks Obie

news/tech/gossip are based off wefollow.com rankings for various tags

why use them instead of my twitter account - most people on the internet dont have twitter accounts - thus don't have a way to follow this tweets -- 200M facebnook users V 1M~ twitter users - twittergrep.com aims to present the best of twitter to the rest of the net population

re audience moving up - agreed could be an issue - but i think there will always be more people who dont use twitter and are after upto the second news than people with twitter accounts

thanks again for you comments - much appreciated

Cheers

Justin

"most people on the internet dont have twitter accounts - thus don't have a way to follow this tweets"

Uh ... it seems to me that if people on the internet actually want to follow twitter tweets they will get a twitter account.

I cannot understand how they will find your site before twitter, or even why they would want to. ???

thanks owkaye

re people getting twitter accounts - if they do thats great - i see TwitterGrep.com more in the vein as channel surfing twitter - or like just looking at the front page of the NY Times to see whats happening - not as serious as getting a account and following all their tweets - just picking a bit hear and there type of browsing habit

re how will they find they site - good question - im doing my best at PR'ing the site :)

re why they would wont to - why do people go to nytimes.com, news,ycombinator.com etc.. - they want to see whats happening re stuff they are interested in - if you want to see whats happening in the tweetosphere check out TwitterGrep.com

cheers
