As @Wossy and @stephenfry bring Twitter to the wider viewing public tonight through Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, there's inevitably going to be a massive surge in Twitter usage.
I would also suggest it's highly likely that general Twitter behaviour may change somewhat as people find different uses for the site and it's various potential applications.
A lot has been written recently on the success of Brands on Twitter, Nick has talked about the rise in profile of Twitter in the mainstream already and some of the newer additions, like Coldplay. I've focussed on Celebrities on Twitter and Fake Celebrities on Twitter, and whether or not Twitter is becoming the new MySpace, and evidence for that in the rise of Georgia Wonder.
Time will tell how the fastest-growing online phenomenon is changed by such high profile exposure just days after record traffic on Twitter during Barack Obama's inauguration. Watch this space.
