Hillary Clinton on Twitter

Posted by Stephen on March 13th, 2008 at 11:18 AM

I confess: I have a Twitter account. It’s a fun little AIM-like application that’s a lot like leaving your brain on speakerphone. Some time ago I found Barack Obama’s Twitter feed. That didn’t surprise me that much — the Obama campaign has been savvily using social networking sites since the beginning.

I was more surprised to find that Hillary Clinton was on Twitter. What’s really amazing is how often she updates. Obama updates once every day or two. Not Hillary. True to her type-A teachers-pet personality, she updates a lot. Just look at what she posted yesterday, March 12th.
