Biz Stone - Blog Entry of Sept 12, 2001

An interesting Internet Archaeological Dig done by Sir Twitalot, and spurred on by recent
use of Twitter in Iran revealed this:

BLOG ENTRY BY BIZ STONE - CO-FOUNDER OF TWITTER
On SEPT 12, 2001 day after the World Trade Center was attacked on Sept. 11.

Biz states - "The nation wasn't torn apart by chaos and widespread panic partly because of our access to information. It was great to be able to check who was okay via IM and email when the phones wouldn't work. "
