Ghost Twittering is a controversial subject. I can’t imagine someone like Mark Cuban, for instance, using a Ghost Twitterer. Oprah Winfrey, however, has many more things to think about than tweeting 140 characters every 10 minutes (I’m not saying Oprah uses a ghost Twitterer). Some people say it’s not right.

Twitter is on its way to becoming something entirely different. This isn’t a new phenomenon, as Twitter’s first incarnation as short form narcissism gave more than a kernel of truth to the old complaint among non-users that “they didn’t want to know what people had for lunch.” Twitter as a Ratings Service.
