I haven't noticed the sponsor link everytime I'm doing my research. Well, google suggestion is very helpful for me. Everytime I need to research something, I don't need to drain my mind just to think of the right word I need to type in the search engine.

I don't think twitter can kill rss. 140 characters is just too short of a summary.
Twitter and RSS can work together
I use both together. For instance, there are certain people I like to follow closely, I use an RSS feed for their tweets because Twitter is real time and the tweets go by fast.

Where did you hear that from?
Yeah, I agree these 2 things are vastly different and I would not see any way that twitter is going to kill RSS. Where did you hear that from anyway? Or did you say that in your post and I missed it?
RE: Where did you hear that from?
I've seen it brought up a number of times over the past six-months to a year. I've been meaning to write about the subject for quite some time, but have finally gotten around to it.
