Reply to "Twitter"

Totally agree.

I was determined to let the entire Twitter thing pass us by and run its course.

Then I set up an account a few weeks back when a few close friends did, and was pretty sure I'd have stopped using it by now.

This weekend 100% converted me. Not only the cooperation of the entire world with what was going on in Iran, but then when the tweet campaign started on Monday to force Twitter to postpone maintenance that's when I got chills.

The twitter community pulled together over the course of one hour and successfully got Twitter's attention and got maintenance delayed until prime time in the US the next day so that Iranians could use it at peak protest times.

Actually watching the topic creep to the top and the realtime reactions of Twitter and their host/provider was incredible.

The community had put together a tactical plan and pulled it off about a half day before the US government was even able to release the statement.

It's all really mind blowing and definitely something to watch in the upcoming months.
