The question is not, "What are you doing?" but "What do you know?"

And Jonathan Leger's TipDrop is offering a challenge to Twitter by inviting people to share their knowledge by posting short tips or adding their knowledge to tips that have already been posted.

TipDrop was launched into Beta on Friday, July 17th, 2009. It looks a bit like Twitter, it "sounds" a bit like Twitter (no coincidence that it begins with T), and it asks a question and gives you just a little bit of space to answer it, rather like Twitter...

But, behind those similarities lies a fundamental difference of purpose. Here's what the blurb says on the TipDrop site:

Why Use TipDrop?

Because unlike other microblogging platforms, TipDrop creates focused sets of useful information on specific concepts. No wasting time reading what somebody had for breakfast here. (We also give you the option of keeping 75% of all ad-revenues generated from the tip sheets you create.)


Focused... useful... specific... and with a system in place to help users generate some revenue from Adsense.

Jonathan Leger has obviously spent a lot of time looking at Twitter and asking himself how microblogging could be improved for people who actually want to learn something from the experience.

Another way in which TipDrop resembles Twitter is that it is 100% free to join, and just as quick and easy to sign up and get started.
