Twitter explodes as users hail 'president obama'
Twitter, the microblogging service that has become the best way to take the simultaneous instant temperature of thousands of online denizens, is exploding with a river of messages saluting Barack Obama as the next president. Individual users are, of course, unconstrained by any professional worries about their credibility as pundits -- and so they're taking TV commentators at their word that the path to victory for McCain is all but nonexistant. It's just that they're taking the next logical step.
"I'm ready to call it," tweeted ktfromLA, "Congrats President Obama!"
"Obama is going to take Ohio," wrote Lizzy Blackney. "Brace yourselves, folks. President-elect Obama is a reality."
"its over," said annafirsure. "obama is going to be president. over."
Simply type in "president obama" to Twitter's search bar, and you will literally see the inrush of tweets using those words. If Twitter is the wall, then there's a whole lot of writing on it
