White House summons Twitter founder for economic advice
Uh Oh, White House Seeks Economic Advice From Twitter
Twitter cofounder and CEO Ev Williams is headed to the White House today.
The administration invited him to join
a "young business leaders" summit to discuss the economic crises.
As Ev himself puts it -- in a Twitter message, of course -- "[this] must mean they're *really* out of ideas."
A reminder: With 6 million members and 700% plus growth, Twitter makes no money in the US. (It sells some ads in Japan).
Every day we wake up to a new Alice-in-Wonderland scenario - or two or three or half a dozen. . . .
Love,
