It is as of yet whether Skittles has left Twitter permanently, or whether it is planning to periodically redirect to its various social networking sites. For more speculation, see Mashable.

ORIGINAL POST 03/02/09: Twitter is getting a workout today.

whaleBetween the Dow dropping below 7000 after Obama finally revealed last week what he was hoping to change in America, 15 inches of Global Warming shutting down airports in New England, and the hillarity which ensued after Barbara Walters attempted to exlain Twitter on The View – There’s just so much to tweet (and retweet)!

I haven’t been able to get onto Twitter for 20 minutes, now and I’m already having withdrawals.

If you’d like to follow the Twitter trends in real time – check out Twitscoop, and watch the tag cloud on the right. It’s fun!

    I love this, the “15 inches of global warming” about made me fall out of my chair. I live in central Florida and as a cop I work shift work. I experienced me some serious global warming last night. I miss the days when we didn’t have it and I wasn’t freezing my badge off in the middle of Florida.

This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)

This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.

Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
