Twitter will kill us all
Submitted by jrenaut on Sun, 10/26/2008 - 7:15pm.I thought this was idiotic when Gizmodo mentioned it, but now Slashdot says that this is actually the US Army. This is terrifying.
A chapter titled 'Potential for Terrorist Use of Twitter' notes that Twitter members reported the July Los Angeles earthquake faster than news outlets and activists at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis used it to provide information on police movements.
Do you know what else is both ubiquitous and super dangerous? AIR. It's highly flammable, and it's friggin' everywhere. I pray every day that no one tells the terrorists.
And you know what else is really dangerous? WATER. It makes us drown. Think what could happen if Al Qaeda found that out. And the Earth is over seventy percent water. I hope Osama Bin Laden doesn't read my blog.
You know why education and health care in this country is always short on money? It's because we pay people to conduct studies like this.
Now I did sign up for Twitter
Submitted by jrenaut on Wed, 10/08/2008 - 11:31pm.I did sign up for Twitter. You can see it to the right if you're actually at the site and not reading the RSS. I also signed up at IMified so I could "tweet" through Google Talk. I still don't really see the appeal, but I haven't given it much of a chance. We'll see what happens.
