US State Department Asks Twitter to Postpone Planned Service Outage (PSO)


Here is another example of the importance of social media in today’s society.  Twitter is being asked, by the United States State Department, to postpone a planned service outage in order to accommodate Iranian communications given the country’s tumultuous political environment.  Seeing as though the Iranian government has left this service open, I am betting that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad  feels the urge to send some tweets on occasion.
