@tsarstepan,
Well, it meant I could tweet more of a Robert Frost poem this AM.
Twitter was started by an undergrad, working at Odeo. They weren't really sure what it was, but conceived of a social networking utility, for updating status. It was aimed at mobile phone users, for SMS. Now it's just a matter of Twitter " growing up."
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.
When twitter appears to be the only genuine source of information coming from the Whitehouse, it's relevant. It may be deranged nonsense, but it's relevant deranged nonsense.
@izzythepush,
Sometimes, you know, you make me very sad.
@roger,
I'm sorry. Would a picture of a kitten help?
@izzythepush,
Actually, what would help is if the content of the 'relevant' White House tweets would be replaced by pictures of kittens. Can haz?
@najmelliw,
It would be infinitely preferable to the paranoid bilge he currently pumps out.
@izzythepush,
Perhaps some app should be written that automatically replaces all the contents of a White House tweet with pictures of kittens. Who knows, people might even start looking forward to these tweets if that's the case!
@najmelliw,
I can't imagine that Twitter knows about this thread but at first glance, it seems a bit like a passive aggressive move where I seemed to have lost a single tweet over night (number wise) after hitting my 4k tweet milestone 12 hours ago.
