    Amazing how much hot water you can get yourself into when you don't know who's listening. Thanks for the link.

    I'm only guessing, but does anyone else think this article may have been spawned by the author quoted in the opening sending a press release? Think she sold a few extra books?

    On a side note, one of the related headlines said that 'Oprah proclaimed Ashton Kutcher the King of Twitter'. Does that mean he's finally being recognized as the King Twit?

    It's amazing to me that people just 'forget' that when they tweet it's as if they're up there with a megaphone shouting to thousands.
    Twitter is fun. It's an amazing marketing medium if done right. Heck, it's downright revolutionary. But it's also public. How can anyone forget that?!!
