my 47 characters of *twitter-fame* − 27 March, 2007
i subscribe to lots of rss feeds and one of the first things i do each morning is check them out. one of the peeps i follow is biz stone, a co-founder of *obvious*. on his feed stream i noticed that he mentioned an article about *twitter* that appeared in *time*. so i click on the link and see the article with a *screenshot* of people's avatars. i noticed one of my twitter peeps' is on there. her name is angelique. she lives in singapore. angelique works like the sweat shop worker for a gaming company. she also has a wry, edgy sense of humor and is a complete riot. i love reading her twitters.
anyhow i decide to twitter her to tell her that i saw her avatar in a time article with a *tiny url* link. she twitters me back and tells me that she thought it was hilarious that i was mentioned in the article. granted, i never bothered to read the article just skimmed through it. however, angelique did read the article and i went back to actually read it. sure enough my silly *twitter* about *girl scout cookies* is mentioned in the same paragraph as john edward's twitter.
now maria and i are both *twitter-famous* as she calls it because her twitter appeared in the san francisco chronicle and mine in time. the whole world has gone a twitter. ;-)
