I can imagine a situation in which I was a major company and I scanned for information about myself and (because of an increase in users) all i received back was noise. Opposed to if I conducted my search before the increase in users (searching a "a relatively small but very tech-savvy userbase") I might get more useful, or at least manageable, results. I suppose that the searching capabilities of offerings such as TweetScan may evolve with the growing population of Twitter users and allow for more detailed searches and thus eliminate some of the noise.

I think the same can be said of Facebook status updates, especially now that one can combine them with the Twitter application.
