Original Thinking in Social Media

I wonder just how much original thinking there is in social media. Admitedly, my exposure is somewhat minimal compared to many. I don't frequent Facebook, or other media sites. My exposure is mainly through the 140 character Twitterverse. But, I see a lot of things rephrased, repeated, and retweeted even there. It seems that there is some need to pass on things -- like rumors, I suppose -- rather than create any original thinking. I haven't done any formal investigation, but I wonder if anyone else has. Perhaps I'll have to take a look.
