"Do a handful of people drive the conversations on twitter?"

Analysts do look for the sorts of users who can say something, or start a hashtag and get it started. Twitter does, even considering how massive it is, have people who frequently kick off ideas and set the tone. I imagine the lower volume of higher density content could strengthen that trend here.

Or eliminate that trend, who knows! I just wanted to point out that the answer to your rhetorical question isn't as clearcut as you might think.
