I'll get a Google Alert every so often with a tweet I've made but certainly not for every tweet. It makes me wonder why some and not others. I totally agree with Hardaway. When I signed on with Twitter I thought it would be a social network with little mini-conversations and requests. Boy, was I wrong. It's filled with quotes, spammers. porn queens, affiliate marketers, MLMarketers, URL re-directs (like this one, by the way). Very, very little in the way of things that are helpful or anything remotely resembling “social” interaction.

But, hey, people like it. The media says it's the next hot thing (which makes it true) and the Internet says it's the next hot thing (which makes it truer).

I agree on the noise to signal ratio, for anything like a conversation with your audience, Twitter does not suffice.

I did not see the comments about Bing indexing tweets when I wrote this (a few weeks before posting), so you're right. Not sure about Google yet indexing the Twitter stream. InformationWeek as recent as May 2009 was saying that an agreement to allow Google that level of access had not yet been reached (link below).

Twitter is certainly indexed by Google, and also by Bing and other search engines. It is also indexed by dozens of Twitter apps and can always be accessed. That's not why I'd advise a CEO not to spend too much time with Twitter: it's because Twitter is now overcome by marketers and spammers and the noise to signal ratio is just awful.
