When Al Gore starts following socialmedian you'll know that he's made it :-)

@jasongolberg Do you think he will follow many?

Never mind. I almost posted something in the wrong place. I'm so glad there is an edit feature!

I think it's great that people in authority are using twitter...

@jasongoldberg So, let's start a socialmedian campaign to help the poor man out and get him OVER HERE, Jason! :-)

Something like, "Dear, Mr. Al Gore, We love ya and we appreciate your being on Twitter and stuff but, if you really knew where to be on the Internet, you'd be HERE on the Internet: socialmedian.com! "

Houston, it appears we have a little bit of a problem. I posted only one message. It generated the same post X's. Question is: how to delete the 3 extra messages from this thread?

@jasongoldberg Good idea @vincentwright. He can handle all the political commentary over here. The Al Gore News Network!

Yeah, the day Al Gore has time to spend the effort and energy necessary to use Social Media effectively? It has totally stopped being signal and started being all noise... ;)

I haven't seen a tweet out of Al yet! At least I didn't write the story.

@GeekMommy Yeah, too bad we can't complain about noise without adding noise to the noise we're complaining about. Guess we might as well toss our brief bit of excitement aside and get back to non-noise posts...

One person's noise is another's signal...

He'll probably have someone tweet for him like Barack and McCain do. Lame!

This is ridiculous, why would anyone care what Al Gore tweets about? He is not in government, he is not in the media, he is in the movie business.

I would much rather see more congressional reps. using Twitter. I don't need anymore tweets about environmentally friendly stuff, I already have plenty of them.
