Street cred

I was doing some work on the Mac, with a lazy eye on the tweetstream, when I saw a reference to this:

It looks real. It feels real. Weird, unexpected, but real nevertheless.
I wonder how they figure out whom to “follow”. Shades of Big Brother is Following You.

We live in interesting times.

Incidentally, my thanks to Gaspar Torriero for tweeting about it.

    Here in the States, Barack Obama’s campaign has shown itself to be tech savvy. Note: http://twitter.com/BarackObama

    Well, if it’s for real it’s a good thing … I’ll bet it’s not Gordon though!

    Our recent election brought us YouTube campaigning, but I don’t think Rudd has found Twitter yet …

    Appears they’ll automagically start following you when you decide to follow them. Sousveillance will cause surveillance?
