I sure hope not; I fear it's a lost cause.
America is at that awkward stage.

The French have Twitter too.
They have to send their Tweets twice.
They always Re-Tweet.

A startup monitors the spread of information on Twitter to identify users with the most influence.

"It's not the number of followers you have on Twitter that counts--it's how you influence them. That's the message from a new service called PeerIndex that analyzes the flow of information through Twitter. It offers a way to find people who are particularly authoritative in certain domains. The users it turns up may have relatively few followers but can still wield a huge amount of influence-- in particular subject areas."
