See, the Chirstianity or Islam is based on some Dogma which you just cant refuse. There is some authority that defines that Dogma. Care to remember Church's stand of use of contraceptives? Or Khomeni's fatawah against Salman Rashdie? Such is not the case with Hinduism. You are a hindu as soon as you start proclaiming one. Call yourself a hindu and criticize Hinduism still the right wing Hindu organizations will accept you as hindu just as any common hindu.

wow. Never thought that twitter can be used for such purposes.
akshar200··on Why I don't like Twitter
yes thats the point being made there. Twitter is not really a medium to express any "knowledge" as such. It is basically used to convey short lived information.

The author does not say that twitter aims to be a replacement for blogs, not really. It is a common concern that is expressed at many places that people who blog often might find twitter more attractive.
