Twitter … Eschatological Sign of Writing Times?

Twitter.

A simple micro-blogging service.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

Ha!

But professional purveyors of corporate gobbledygook know, yes they know, Twitter is a tool straight from hell.

A demon dalliance.

Twitter threatens …

National Security.

Job Security.

Retro-strategic de-innovation.

Professional obfuscation.

Those in the know, know, the Wall Street collapse and panic can be laid directly at the Tweet of Twitter.

I think it had something to do with overeating my favorite cuisine tonight – chili with peanut butter, beans, salmon, jelly, mayonnaise, jalapeno peppers and anchovies, washed down with a quart of chocolate beer.

That might have been it.

However, all seriousness aside, those in the know, know – you just never know.
