Interesting article on terrorists using Twitter. I think it is a grim reality that each new capability we get that "shrinks the world" can be used as much for evil as good.
I was also struck by an specific section in the article....
"Twitter has also become a social activism tool for socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and others to communicate with each other and to send messages to broader audiences,"
First - "hacktivists" - first time I have crossed paths with that term.
Second - first time I have seen vegetarians lumped in with socialists, communists, and anarchists. Kinda speaks to me :)
