#Tehran

Posted in Off Topic on June 17th, 2009 by asjs

I’m going to get a little off topic here.

Here at Graphient our thoughts are with those engaged in a higher stakes game than any startup ever could be. This morning I set Tweetdeck to search for “Tehran” for about an hour and watched the messages of hope and revolution stream by. It is amazing to see a technology derided by so many as useless and narcissistic have such a profound effect on world affairs.

Good luck to the Iranian people. And to Twitter: congratulations, your shipment of relevance has arrived.

    Good luck to all of them. Remember in the Taliban ruled Afghanistan possession of a modem or satellite capable com gear was punishable by death… Access to information is a wonderful thing.
