Power of Social Networking

While my posting for Urban Chat was rather mundane, and I generally disliked the site... I do believe that within social networking someone or anyone has the potential or power to generate millions of followers for little or no apparent reason. Most recently, my new personal favorite is a guy (Justin Halpern) on twitter. He simply wrote down the shit his dad says, and has found himself with prospects hunting him down to create a book (twitter account @shitmydadsays). I find it to be hilarious.

More importantly, the reason I came back for another posting. The power of  social networking. I was displeased with Urban Chat, yada yada yada, but I found this article on the Twitchhiker. Twitter alone was able to generate enough interest and innovation to have Paul Smith travel the world...For free. The article is an awesome read. If you doubt the power of Twitter, as I did, check it out.
