You should be proud of yourself, Twitter. You’re actually good for something besides being an idle diversion for bored middle-class Westerners. Your role as a key communications tool for Iranian protesters is getting you all kinds of love from uber-bloggers like Andrew Sullivan. And good on you for delaying regularly scheduled maintenance to keep those lines of communication open. Maybe you can send Ashton Kutcher to Tehran for some man-on-the-scene tweeting. At the very least, it might give a few hundred thousand of his followers the incentive to learn where Iran is.
