    Great summary Brian. Did you know that when the airplane went down in the Hudson River, New York it was tweeted in MINUTES? It took 1.5 hours for it to be listed on Google search. (even though the news was posted at the same time)

    Twitter does have a lot of potential. I guess that's why they turned down the offer from FaceBook to buy them at $500million.

    During the Mumbai terrorist attack, if you searched #mumbai on Twitter, you would get a minute by minute report from Twitter users on the ground in India. Totally different perspective from regular news channels. Amazing!
