We’ve been saying this at Poker for a while that Twitter would soon become as powerful as other search engines for discovering the latest happenings on the net – and it’s happening right before our eyes.

Twitter has shifted the balance from being a  broadcast tool, where users tell the world about what one had for breakfast, to a portal for breaking news and information.

According to Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, no longer is the day where its micro blogging format is used exclusively for “personal musings”, but “people are witnessing accidents, organising  events, breaking news… and so much more”. “The fundamental open model of Twitter created a new kind of information network and it has long outgrown the concept of personal status updates”.
