Do you tweet like a fourth grader?

Did you ever try to figure out how smart or dumb your tweet is? Well, according to a new test method for the micro-blogging site, 33 percent of people tweet at a fourth grade reading level.

The tweet test was carried out by Time magazine using a reading comprehension survey known as Simple Measure of Gobbledygook (SMOG).

It found that while teenage sensation Justin Bieber tweets like a fifth grader, US President Barack Obama tweets like a seventh grader!

Time magazine analysed one million public tweets and found that most tweets require no more than a fourth grade education to comprehend.

 

"Although a tweet's limit of 140 characters makes it difficult to compose a message at a higher reading level. But not impossible. This test did pick up a handful of 12th-grade tweets," the report added.

Tweets were downloaded with the Twitter application programming interface (API) and run through a version of the SMOG test written for JavaScript.
