There's been buzz this week about the rejection of Twitter by teens. And Jeff Bertolucci of PCWorld asks, "Just how uncool is Tweeting?" Bertolucci writes that according to ComScore, only 11 percent of Twitter users are aged 12 to 17, the New York Times reports.

Bertolucci thinks that the reason teens aren't down with Twitter may be because its too public, whilst texting allows for more privacy.

What do you think?
