Texts sent to the web. (If I tweet from my phone, I compose an SMS and send it to my "Twitter" contact. 140 characters makes it easy to have 500 tweets. If you compared the number of words in all your blog posts versus your number of tweets (assuming you started both on the same day), then you would be comparing like with like. i.e. word counts! :-) Twittering is what it is – Documenting your life in SMS.
