this may be fun, but nature rules http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1266568/Volcanic-ash-cloud-100-000-Britons-stranded-Europe-air-traffic-chiefs-extend-lockdown-7am.html
gives you a different prospective on things –
How utterly useless and UN-informative. This only adds to a vast body of evidence that Twitter (and its users) relates to intelligence in the same way fast-food relates to nutrition.
While I agree with you on the surface, I think the potential for Twitter as a social coordination tool is higher that folks give it credit for. On the one hand it is a social pacifier for the masses and on the other it is a awesome short message broadcast mechanism.
It remains to be seen if this technology springs forward at some point to be a sling shot to bring Goliath down.
Guns don’t kill people, people kill people.
I appreciate your perspective and will concede that it MAY have some potential as a “social coordination tool.” However, and perhaps I’m wrong, it seems to be hyped as a “communication tool.” As such, it IS as useless as the MSM’s abbreviated sound/video-bytes, taken out of context, being touted as “evidence” for an “informed opinion/decision.” Perhaps I’m just too freaking “old” since I find “texting” on cell-phones almost as abhorrently senseless. Yet I’ll also concede the latter seems to make more sense as a “social coordination tool” than the former. Lastly, do not the masses already have a plethora of “pacifiers?” Are these pacifiers not contributors, at least in part, for the economic and environmental predicaments we’re now facing? Regardless, thanks for the input. :)
Ooops, forgot to commend you on your last sentence… it’s “dead” on!! :D

ROFLOL!
p1728, thanks for that! Perhaps my earlier comment was a bit harsh as I found that “battle” to be both “informative” and utterly hilarious! :D
Tried playing with it and it is actually pretty good.
Whips get too much credit.
