STATS: Young People Are Flocking to Twitter

“One of the most actively discussed topics in the Twitter universe over the past couple months has been the idea that teens don’t tweet – at least not as much as older demographics, and certainly not as actively as teens who use other popular social networking sites.

Now, it appears that this story may be shifting. According to new data from comScore, younger users – specifically those in the 12-17 and 18-24 year-old demographics – are Twitter’s fastest growing audience segment. “

Report Anticipates Cost Savings From Online Health Care Services – iHealthBeat – This sounds promising; however, like other estimates of cost-savings of health information technology, a careful examination of the methodology is necessary. Unfortunately, I cannot find the actual study online, but I did e-mail the folks at Milliman to see if I could examine it. if anyone else has (legal) access to it or has reviewed it, please feel free to post a comment.

update 10/09/08: I contacted Milliman and this report is not available for public review. If I am in a situation to review it, I will repost that information here. In the meantime, I am going to reserve judgement on the use of this study’s findings for future work. The conclusions certainly seem compelling, so I hope to get the opportunity to review it.
