'Lost' finale goes Twitter-Trending
If you (like me) didn't watch Lost when it was on regularly, you probably didn't watch the finale. That doesn't mean you can escape it, however. 'Lost' has invaded the Twitter-verse and is now a Trending topic. #lostfinale
Or maybe this is only happening in an alternate universe....
@mundanetrivia The final message of Lost: dogs are awesome. #lostfinale
@torrentielle Ok. I may have cried. A lot. But it was totally worth it. Except for the last 5 min, but I'm willing to let it slide. Awesome. #lostfinale
@maarionete Não assisti nenhum capítulo, mas pelo visto, #lostfinale foi péssimo! HAHAHA
@simplyjuanita Still ruminating on The End. I loved the ending for what it was, and yet I understand the disappointment that many feel. #lostfinale #lost
@dailyhipster The #Lostfinale was a 4.5 hour vindication of long hair and stubble. #hipster.
@Lynette_78 Thats it. Its over. I'm all cried out. Amazing show. Love it. #lostfinale
@killthcreed If they were gonna end on that note, I would have preferred if they finished at the end of season 5!! #lostfinale

Rand Paul stirs the Twitter-Pot
Republican Senate candidate Rand Paul of Kentucky has been a hot topic lately. Even before his questionable comments about the Civil Rights Act.
Now he's a trending topic on Twitter.
@MrNoface @she_the_law Given this new info coming out about Rand Paul, if he gets elected in the general (even in KY), I'll be sincerely shocked.
@marianliz Rand Paul on BP: "sometimes accidents just happen" ?! http://bit.ly/9Jq40f
@RHochdorf Rand Paul - Says 64 Civil Rights Act is too broad. Private business should be able to discriminate. He said what he meant to say. Scary.
@bmenezes Get ready for life under Tea Klan rule: Pundit Stossel agrees with Rand Paul, OK to allow businesses to be racist http://shar.es/mYf64
@Bobblespeak Rand Paul is concerned about the distinction between private and public property. For example, a uterus is public property.
@DanHealthFiles WATCH: Rand Paul Defends Discrimination Remarks http://url4.eu/3cxnA
@wlmitchell MT @lehmannchris: Can't wait to see what batshit controversy Rand Paul ignits next.

Twitter hacked! (What's new)
Everyone's favorite punching bag got hit again. Not sure why folks keep picking on Twitter. If you don't like it, don't use it.
Despite my disdain for bullies, I must mention they have struck again. This time folks on twitter found their Following/Follower count reduced to '0'.
So much for all that hard work attracting Followers. Twitter is right now working on a fix. In the meantime, the topic is trending....
@Trendy_Searcher And as predicted... Following 0 is trending!
@Erica530 RT @skeetonmytwitts: whoa the twitter hack thing is crazeee now everybodys following 0 and has 0 followers

Follow the election in England via Twitter.
Hastag #ge2010 has the latest election results in England.
From local Members of Parliament to the Prime Minister himself, yesterday was a big day.
It's a crucial election for those across the pond. Labour and Conservatives and Liberal Democrats; it seems a mess to Americans, but the folks on Twitter seem to have it all sorted out....
@macronencer RT @sharkwald: Brown: "Take it slowly Nick; as long as you need." Cam: "Lets get this done ASAP!" Clearly, Brown is the more sensitive lover. #ge2010
@drbillasu RT @timeshighered: #voteHE song of the day: I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For - U2 #ge2010
@triggernometry RT @jamiekitson: under proportional representation the BNP would have 12 seats. Just sayin'. #ge2010
@dancing_geek Off to eat and read books about personal courage and probability (2 diff. books). Anything to stop me thinking about #GE2010 for a minute.
@svejky End of the strong party system? Really? I hope so but I find it difficult to believe. #ge2010

From local Members of Parliament to the Prime Minister himself, yesterday was a big day.
It's a crucial election for those across the pond. Labour and Conservatives and Liberal Democrats; it seems a mess to Americans, but the folks on Twitter seem to have it all sorted out....
@macronencer RT @sharkwald: Brown: "Take it slowly Nick; as long as you need." Cam: "Lets get this done ASAP!" Clearly, Brown is the more sensitive lover. #ge2010

Time Square makes Trends on twitter
An SUV loaded with explosives is the latest trending topic on Twitter. And for good reason.
The suspect has been caught, but the fact it was a relatively simple thing to happen and only a set of circumstances prevented a tragedy is obviously on the minds of many people...
@Fabienne4Life RT @elonjames: Times Square terrorist had hand drawn maps of the 4,5.6 train lines? Um, did he know we print those and give them out for free?
@postcrescent FBI looking for terror ties after arrest in Times Square bomb attempt, Obama says. http://twurl.nl/zqplqx
@harrisjalil Faisal Shahzad, Times Square bomb suspect, arrested on board plane for Dubai - Times Online: http://bit.ly/9duKEe via @addthis
@JRitzy RT @JediMaster_OPS: I somehow doubt that Bloomberg would be whining about having 'backlash' if the Times Square bomber was a teapartier.
@meNovalee RT @cnnlive: Attorney General Eric Holder gives an update on the Times Square bombing attempt at 1p ET. Watch it here live: http://cnn.com/live
@Vinnie_Vega Pakistani authorities have arrested two people in connection with the failed bombing in Times Square - Wash. Post $$ /via @Street_Insider
@noelle1969 RT @DDDBU: When asked, neighbors of the Times Square suspect said he was a quiet man, a great guy and pretty much da bomb.
