It sure is a shocker for Michael Jackson getting his exit on this day of June 25, 2009 (the 26th here). A lot of speculation on his comeback with 50 dates in the UK has totally ended with a shocker.Had he probably died of cardiac arrest due to his usual rounds of back-breaking practice sessions to get him back to his dancing greatness? Speculations and more speculations.

How did such a simple service became a hit? What really is this thing about sharing 140 characters of text (and inanities) to a large audience of 17 million? Who, why, and how are we Twittering?Those questions and more answered (or so it seems) in the following video from ReadWriteWeb.comThe Sociology of Miksashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17596905382729801404noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874171352416379281.post-84869613607522116142009-06-01T11:40:00.003+08:002009-06-01T11:46:29.120+08:00Did You Know ?!I was mighty intgrigued by this vid.

They called U.S. Vice-Presidential Sarah Palin posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy and staff. The stunt was deemed to be real as can be heard on an audio clip posted on YouTube.I have heard the stuff being said and it is funny. Sarah was cautious though and stuck to her talking points.
