Celebrity Twitter

As Twitter’s been the talk of the town lately, let’s not forget that although Karl Rove might get his fair share of followers, Celebrity Twitters seem to be the new thing to check daily (if you’re into a slow and constant feed of gossip).

I’m also a pretty staunch skeptic like Brianna, but after reading her blog, I decided to try to reform my opinion and look into it more.

TIME recently compiled a list of the Top 10 Celebrity Twitter Feeds and who was number one? Britney Spears, of course. It seems that the former pop princess and mother of two still has a substantial number of devoted followers that want to know what she’s up to 24/7.

Does this cancel out the effectiveness Twitter used in the political realm? What do you think people are more interested in reading or likely to click on first?

My guess is as good as any, but with that, I’ve got a haunch that Snoop Dog’s Twitter is a lot more popular than even David Gregory.
