Rewards For Tweets

An article by David Borowitz in The Huffington Post refers to CIA reports that Bin Laden is being followed on Twitter. When is this villain ever going to get caught? Now if only Twitter could somehow track him down. You wouldn't think it would be that hard.

In what some are calling a breakthrough in the hunt for the world's most wanted man, the Central Intelligence Agency revealed today that it is following Osama bin Laden on Twitter....

"We thought we were detecting an increase in chatter from Osama bin Laden," CIA chief Leon Panetta told reporters today. "What it turned out to be was an increase in tweets."...

The spy chief said that Mr. bin Laden's Twitter usage seems to peak between the hours of 8 and 9 PM on Mondays
.

Twitter creators should be proud of their newest creation. If it helps locate him, what a "killer app" that would be. If only Twitter could be combined with a GPS. There's money to be made catching him. This time it's the government that needs bailing out. Can you help?
