Tweeting What You're Eating

Twitter has evolved from sharing breakfast to sharing content, as seen in its redesigned format.
I've been having this conversation a lot and thought it was worth posting. When thinking about Twitter I keep thinking of all the people poking fun of the service a few years ago by saying that it's a place for people to share what they had for breakfast. Now that Twitter has matured and redesigned it's becoming more and more apparent that the jokes were correct. Twitter is all about what you're consuming, except it's not food, it's content. Twitter is full of people sharing the YouTube video they had for breakfast and the New York Times article they consumed for lunch. The new design seems to be largely focused on this type of behavior. Funny how jokes sometimes turn out to be insightful.
