Technology News - T3ch H3lp

Heads up, there are some slightly NSFW moments in the video - but that just re-enforces the fact that it could be the best representation of Twitter coming to life possible. It portrays a number of Twitter users acting out others' tweets. Simple as that. The creators @poeks & @sween made this by getting some Twitter friends to re-create some of the funniest Tweets ever, but it gets really creative with the addition of a random dance sequence, guitar solo, and infamous "YEEEAAAHHHHH!!" moment. So hold on tight and re-live some of the funniest moments from Twitter in real life!

Conan O'Brien gets random girl over 25,000 Twitter followers

|

Sarah Killen, a.k.a. @LovelyButton, isn't anyone special: she's just an average 19 year old girl living in Michigan. But there is one thing that separates her for her peers - or anyone else for that matter - she's the only person whom Conan O'Brien is following on Twitter. Why, you may ask. Well, it's quite simple really. Conan just recently joined the Twitter nation after being let go by NBC, and in act of either boredom or kindness decided he was going to "change one person's life". Little did anyone know it would be as simple as him adding her to his following list. Seemingly from one day to the next she was now someone who's opinion mattered to over 25,000 twitter follorws, but the story doesn't there.

It's quite a remarkable story because y'see, Sarah and her fiance have been saving up for a small wedding in the fall but haven't been able to really come up with the dough. But now that she's become an internet celebrity over night she's received countless offers for a wedding dress, wine, and even a honeymoon. So to repay the man who unknowingly got the ball rolling, Sarah and her husband-to-be requested that Conan be the best man at their September wedding. It's an odd request but it's the one way they knew how to repay the one time Tonight Show host.

t3chh3lp Interview - Social Media Superhero, MissDestructo

|

You may have heard of her, you may have not, but one thing that you are aware of is social media. And as a self dubbed Social Media Superhero, Miss Destructo makes the rounds finding businesses to aide them enter the new digitally interwoven world.

Whether you use them or not there's no denying the power of social networks, Myspace, Facebook, Twitter - they've all changed the way we communicate, but more importantly they've changed the way companies advertise to their audience. Here's where our interviewee, Miss Destructo, comes into the picture. With thousands of people following her on Twitter she's become a bit of an official unofficial guru to this new trend in advertising. Whether it's her snazzy style and blue hair, or her love for Bruce's Yams, she's got our attention and we'd like to ask her a few questions.

I got a chance to have a short interview with her, to ask her what she thinks people should know about social media and about herself.

Leo Laporte and friends get random woman 3,200 followers in 40 min

|

A random act of kindness during the recording of TWiT - Episode 238 gave Lisa Etheridge a solid 3,200 followers in less than 40 minutes at an alarming rate of 80 followers per minute or 1.3 followers a second. She got her mass Twitter followers after Leo and Kevin Rose were inspired by Conan's previus act of kindness and it was up to Kevin to find a user at random and Lisa was that user.

After they mentioned her on the show, her follower count increased to about 1000, but after the story made it to the front page of Digg, her follower count rocketed to 3,200 and beyond. Near the end of the Episode, Leo seemed worried that she may not be as enthused about this as they were, so he offered to buy her an iPad and pay for her SMS bills. You need a pat on the back Leo!

Seesmic Look - Maybe the best Desktop Twitter app Ever

|

A lot of the trouble with Twitter is that it relies on 3rd party sources to give you an experience - because the website itself can be pretty boring for some! Think about it - Twitter.com has never been your main way of tweeting because it doesn't offer URL shortening or other special goodies; it's just a box to type in. I am afraid though that at the end of this review you may want to re-think the way you use Twitter, forever.

Review after the break!
