Twitter in the San Francisco Chronicle
Today’s San Francisco Chronicle features an article by Dan Fost on how Twitter was the “toast of the town” at last week’s SXSW Interactive 2007:
“Austin’s SXSW festival atwitter over Twitter”
In the article Dan quotes one of the Twits I sent out at SXSW: “I think we reached Twittercal mass in Austin. It will be interesting to see where we go from here.”
Dan also references a story I told him from SXSW about I was out with Obvious Corp (the company that makes Twitter) for a late dinner at Maglolia Cafe, where afterwards we were stranded in the rain waiting for a cabs we called that were not showing up. I said, why don’t we use the awesome force that is Twitter and I send out a Twitter post asking someone to send a cab our way. Well the cabs we called eventually showed up, but when I got back to the hotel a saw a Twitter post from Whurley, the organizer of BarCamp Austin, who offered to come out there and pick us up. Yeah, the system works.
