Twitter Replaces Police Work, Blather.net Declares Jihad

Posted by barry

'When heavy snowfall threatened to scupper Paul Chambers's travel plans, he decided to vent his frustrations on Twitter by tapping out a comment to amuse his friends. "Robin Hood airport is closed," he wrote. "You've got a week and a bit to get your shit together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!!" Unfortunately for Mr Chambers, the police didn't see the funny side. A week after posting the message on the social networking site, he was arrested under the Terrorism Act and questioned for almost seven hours by detectives who interpreted his post as a security threat.'

Check it out in the Independent. Now, I wonder if those police, whose 'jobs' involve reading twitter and 7 hours 'questioning' a random member of the public, read Blather.net? I mean, they obviously have the time. There's only one way to find out! I hereby declare that I, Heinrich Bivouac, Internal Silage Manager of Blather.net Knitting Systems Inc., will utterly destroy Robin Hood Airport in a week and a bit, once I work out where the hell it is! Doncaster? Where's that???
