iminchurch
Zombieland

Aside from the bots the people tweeting these topics seem to be largely kids.
Well, Lady Gaga was just on SNL and Zombieland just came out... so it's equal parts kids and equal parts "what just happened"....

In addition to being a 'micro blog' or what ever it's called, it's also a 'micro attention span' site. Even fads that last a week are still lasting 6 days longer than topics on Twitter.
