Dudes, get a fucking life. Twitter is good for mass communication directly to cell phones. Of course it could be used by terrorists. It could also be used by business folks, schools on field trips, etc. etc.
I am so tired of "$useful_technology could be used by terrorists" news articles.
*I share this link as a sample, not to endorse the activity. The article is not all that interesting, it is the title that is ridiculous.
