Theres an interesting phenomenon going on involving Twitter and linking. A couple of years ago, when someone would see an interesting piece of content, they would link to it. Today, when this happens, people tweet it. So, what does this mean for link bait?

In this interview with WebProNews, Rand Fishkin of SEOmoz says, essentially, Twitter is cannibalizing the Webs link graph, and its doing so in a disproportionate manner for more social media forward industries.

Although Fishkin does not believe the link graph is disappearing completely, he says its growing faster in the social Web than it is in the blogosphere. Google is also picking up on this trend and is paying attention to tweets. According to Fishkin, people can calculate Page Rank with the Twitter graph in the same way people do on the Web. He thinks Google is working with this concept now and expects to see more from them in this area.

Speaking of Google, Mike McDonald asks Fishkin about Google Buzz. From a strategic standpoint, Fishkin believes Google wants to let people know that the social Web and social media are important to them. In addition, Google realizes the amount of sharing and connection that happens through email and wants to leverage it.

There are, however, many issues that have been raised over Google Buzz, as WPN previously reported. While the lasting power of Buzz is still to be determined, Fishkin says SEOs are waiting to where it goes before they fully embrace it.

What are your thoughts regarding link bait in this age of Twitter, and do you believe Google Buzz will stick around?

LYRICS:

Sitting in my marketing office
Closed loop marketing on the brain
How I make it more of my mix
This crazy maze has got me insane

Compliance and digital content challenges
Doctors, consumers they need the news
Man oh man I got me a bad case
Of the medical marketing blues

I know the need for peer review
Like others in this trade
Im looking for my digital content
Enabling spade

Sales reps and their tablet PCs
They gotta have them in the field
Online portals and e-detailing (Give me)
NRx TRx Yield

SEARCH ENGINE MARKETING
PRODUCT MICROSTIES
CLOSED LOOP MARKETING
SYSTEMS!!!!

Multichannel integration
Good reprint practices
Theres so much out there
To get me confused
I got the medical marketing blues

Competition to get to physicians
Sales reps need my help
Because information is such a sponge
And Reprints Desk can help

I know the need for peer review
Like others in this trade
Im looking for my digital content
Enabling spade

Compliance and digital content challenges
Doctors, consumers they need the news
Man oh man I got me a bad case
Of the medical marketing blues

Because information is what you need
And Reprints Desk can help
