A Match Made in Twitter

Someone out there knows I’m a connoisseur of “fake” Twitter accounts, and late this morning, forwarded me an e-mail that I cannot help but screencap and share:

E-mail of Barack Obama reciprocally following a fake Jeremiah Wright on Twitter

Twelve hours later, there is one perfunctory tweet. In fact, it appears this account was created with one purpose in mind. That’s reflected in the e-mail above and, publicly, in the sidebar:

Sidebar on fake Jeremiah Wright Twitter account shows only one follower: Obama

Count this as an overlooked reason why Twitter will succeed: its endless capacity for mischief.
