Boy oh boy. That little Twitter just keeps getting more and more important.

“The Obama administration, while insisting it is not meddling in Iran, yesterday confirmed it had asked Twitter to remain open to help anti-government protesters.

The company had planned a temporary shutdown to overhaul its service in the middle of the night on Monday but the US state department put in a request to postpone this.

Many protesters have being using Twitter to spread information about rallies and to share news.”

(via the Guardian UK site – that’s the big newspaper in England).

You can follow me on Twitter, too. Though you’re probably more likely too see odd comments about my life than info on where to go for your next protest. Most of the time, anyway.
