Guy, I think you should watch this. If you're not already getting royalties for being the subject of this video, it may be time to seek legal counsel.

Ha!!!! That's great. Very "The Matrix" like.

I'll admit that there's something very illogical about the entire Twittersphere. It's a hard to explain phenomenon.

I don't think its hard to explain at all. In fact, the video did a very good job. That site is for all the narcissists of the world to barf out any and all self-important, trivial facts about their day without worrying about the specifics... like having anyone actually hear it.

I'm too lazy to make a full defense of Twitter (one could be made).

One great thing that Twitter has shown the X nation is how hard Chris Mack is working. I honestly had no idea how difficult this time of year was for college coaches. It makes me believe that many head college basketball coaches are underpaid.

That's one of the great aspects about Twitter: transparency (from the Iranian elections to Chris Mack's work ethic).

Just 24 hours ago, Twitter went down. May that never happen again.

Twitter is back up and running.

I feel relieved.
