WebProNews reports on a survey by online ad network Chitika, which studied its users and found that (based on a sample of 973,661 impressions across the Chitika network) 28 per cent of links shared on Twitter went to news sites.
When compared with the results for older social sites, such as Facebook, ‘the value and perception of Twitter’s speed become more obvious’, says the ad network.
