“Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have been sacked.”
This is amazing. I should tweet this.
Since last we spoke and there have been a few more lines written in #the140film. Our toothless bartender still stands and we now have a look at the person who blew out the windows of the bar. And he know how to travel.
Tweet and retweet to write the rest of the movie!
If you don’t know what I’m taking about, we’re writing a movie one tweet at a time. All your questions can be answered on the site.

This was linked from another source with the title “Is Twitter Too Big To Succeed?” That really piqued my interest but that’s not actually what the article is about. It is more about the things that are happening behind the scenes at Twitter and what they are trying to do keep celebs tweeting, to become profitable without becoming annoying, and to adapt to their user base. It’s a really interesting read.
The intense pressure to convert Twitter into a profitable business, and before a tech bubble pops, is palpable here. And it’s happening as the company struggles with an interlocked set of existential questions, starting with the most basic one possible: What is Twitter? Initially, the idea was of a kind of adrenalized Facebook, with friends communicating with friends in short bursts—and indeed, Facebook rushed to borrow Twitter’s innovations so it wouldn’t be left behind. But as Twitter grew, it finally became clear to Twitter’s brain trust that the relevant analogy was not a social network but a broadcast system—the birth of a different sort of TV.
This is an actual tweet from the official, verified, T-Mobile twitter account. It’s really ugly when major corporations are trolling for retweets.
One of my favorite #bullshitfacts.
All Twitter want’s to talk about is J Allard. Like Zpower I like to think the Kin was the final straw… Also, this proves once again that all Microsoft rumors are true.
