The Rise and Fall of Twitter
- river_styx 18y agoArrington is kinda like a really sad Nero, standing atop techcrunch hill with his fiddle, desperately waiting for twitter to burn.
- sh1mmer 18y agoIt's a video, which is lame but funny. It's like trashy TV designed specifically for geeks.
- Mistone 18y agoin terms of a video mashup I thought it was really well done, good to see them poking fun at twitter and hyper connectivity.
- alaskamiller 18y agoConsidering they took an already pretty funny video that relied completely on the captions and rejiggled the text to read twitter.. I'm just going to give them a C for effort.

- lisper 18y agoThis actually makes an interesting psychological experiment. I know German, and I found I could not focus on the subtitles unless I turned the sound down, which took away some of the emotional impact. But it made me laugh anyway.
- jauco 18y agoMost of the tv here is subtitled, and by now I cannot _not_ read them. Even if they don't match what's being said or they just read "sorry, due to technical differences we have no subtitles". That last one is super annoying because every time the image changes abruptly it triggers a 'read-subtitle' response in me. I can understand English just fine, but reading subtitles is hardwired somewhere.
