I’m a Gmail user and I’ve never ***** before.
12.4.2009
Correlation =/= causation
12.4.2009
Cool story, bro.
12.4.2009
Yeah, I’m pretty sure this has nothing to do with GMail itself.
12.4.2009
Maybe becasue Gmail has twice as many users?
12.4.2009
i’m never gonna digg you up.
12.4.2009
No one who uses AOL, Yahoo, or Hotmail takes the internet seriously as a method of communication.
12.4.2009
I LUV TWITTER, IT MAKES ME AN INTERNET CELEBRITY LOL
12.4.2009
Going out on a limb to say that Twitter is the worst trend in years.
12.4.2009
Attention whores tweet twice as much too.
12.4.2009
I don’t think it’s implying one causes the others, but I think it’s showing a link that gmail and twitter have similar audiences.If anything, it’s showing that the type of person who still uses Yahoo Mail probably hasn’t heard of Twitter.
12.4.2009
What a bunch of *****.
12.4.2009
"They’re trying to say that using Gmail causes you to tweet more and use LinkedIn."Are they? Where, exactly? I see nothing but raw statistics and assertions of correlation.
12.4.2009
eww linkedin. id rather have diarrhea in a cramped commuter van
12.4.2009
Cool reply, bro.
12.4.2009
How this even a story? 1. Its not interesting 2. Most people could work out that the less internet savvy people still have their hotmail and yahoo accounts from 6 years ago and never got gmail.
12.4.2009
Yes it does, they changed the name to Google Chrome OS.
12.4.2009
Oh I don’t know about that. Love or hate Twitter, it can’t be worse than the abomination that is MySpace. That is so bad it even has a Firefox extension that warns you when you go to it. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/606 …
12.4.2009
Googlers are with it.
12.4.2009
AOL still exists?I thought it is dead a long time ago since I’m not receiving any free trial cd anymore.
12.4.2009
I doubt it since Yahoo is the one with over twice as many users. 106.2 million users compared to Gmails 36.9 million users as of last June. news.cnet.com/8301-30684_3-10311150-265.htm …
12.4.2009
I’ve never even gone to twitter.com and I’ve been using Gmail for years. ***** Twitter.
12.4.2009
Seriously, use some common sense. This is news?AOL is hopelessly outmoded, Hotmail is ancient (and now utterly crippled by asinine "security" measures), and Yahoo is nearly as outmoded as AOL.
12.4.2009
Well, don’t know, but they added about 20 million users last year.
12.4.2009
No they are saying more Gmail users tweet. Put away your tinfoil hat and just RTFA.
12.4.2009
Cool, bro.
12.4.2009
Digg users = Gmail users. That’s for sure.
12.4.2009
Same. I’ve had my account since they were giving away 100 invitations per person. But I refuse to tweet. Facebook has the same thing now. I see people updating their status from their cell phones.
12.4.2009
because gmail is the email of an experienced internet user
12.4.2009
I bet guys who use hotmail or yahoo mail doesn’t know that twitter exits
12.4.2009
Also, comment on Digg articles with names like "cooterville"
12.4.2009
Pretty sure there are more gmail users on the planet than there are hotmail users. Just sayin.
12.4.2009
gmail is privately used for emailing, messaging, and etc while twitter people spy on you. twitter dude says "Oh my gosh i have 1,00 twiter friends"
12.4.2009
nah if you’re really hardcore you don’t need any of these ***** ad-based services
12.4.2009
This is a textbook example of logical fallacy and statistical error. They’re trying to say that using Gmail causes you to tweet more and use LinkedIn, but it’s more likely that they’re all getting more users because they are used by younger people who are more likely to use all three websites simply due to their age. Correlation does not imply causation.
12.4.2009
Are those used accounts? I have several Yahoo accounts from the mid-90s which have been left unused since…the mid-90s. But I only have 1 GMail account, which I’ve used since I opened it.
12.4.2009
I have two gmail accounts and i don’t tweet….that often.
12.4.2009
im a gmail user.. *flex*
12.4.2009
TwitterGadget in Gmail has really increased my number of tweets over the past few months.
12.4.2009
Your #1 describes 99.9% of all tweets. It’s on the front page because Twitter users are self-serving.
12.4.2009
Digg commenters are less self serving?Hello Pot, have you been introduced to Kettle?
