Teens don't tweet?

twitter%20book.jpg
Much is being made of some Nielsen numbers released today that show teens don't tweet (aka, use Twitter) as much as those over 25.

That's spawned a fair amount of responsorial tweeting by, um, teens.

Here's a sampling from tweeters in our area (and, as you'll see, beyond):

@EddyKhalil from Annapolis: "Stats confirm it: teens don't tweet I don't think so I tweet and few of my friends tweet the only reason why we don't like it is because we think that the only people who use twitter have no lives." (Note: tweet extended at Twitlonger)

@machpe, Bel Air: "Teens don't tweet Teens started tweeting."

@filipepadilha, Anapolis (OK, localized Twitter search doesn't work so well. This appears to be Anapolis in Brazil, Twitter. No wonder teens don't tweet, but this one is interesting anyway.)
"They don't want grow up. hahaha. RT @techxav Why Teens Don't Tweet http://bit.ly/gb9PV"

@_AmyBryson ("Solar System): "if "teens don't tweet" then what am i doing"
