I don't think Twitter receives enough good attention. Facebook blatantly stole Twitters feed idea. Through my Twitter feed, I am routinely fed my local weather, coupons for places I actually shop at, tech and news updates, updates on the latest in my profession, what my friends are up to, and also what pro cyclists are up to. No where else can you so precisely fine tune what information you want to receive. When the airplane landed in the Hudson this year, it broke on Twitter before any of the news outlets had a photo or even a headline. I agree that it's a waste to know what my friend ate for breakfast or that Lance's mustache for Movember is a slow-grower, but if you're able to dig a little deeper, there's a wealth of quick bits of info. at your fingertips.
