I'm not sure that's true. When you ask a question on twitter and not directed at one person using the @ symbol, it goes out to the entire twitterverse. It's just that most people don't monitor the entire twitterverse, just the people they follow. So you are more likely to get a reply from your followers than anyone else. The exception is that if your updates are protected, just your approved followers can read them.

There has been a lot of speculation of late that twitter may prove to be competition to Google in the future, and this would indicate that they are moving in a direction that could prove to lead to future competition.
