News Atlanta gas hunt rocks the Twitter
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 2:21 PM
Searching for gasoline in Atlanta is one of the most popular uses of the micro-blogging service Twitter this morning, according to Twitter's list of most-searched topics.
Note: #atlgas is the only non-national topic on the list.
If you have no clue what I'm talking about -- web-enabled Atlantans are blogging the location of stations with gasoline by blogging it to Twitter along with the characters #atlgas. Including #atlgas in the message allows people to find up-to-minute gasoline sightings simply by searching for the characters #atlgas.
