via Techmeme by (author unknown) on May 12, 2008
Danny Sullivan / Search Engine Land:Twitter Beats (Wow, By 3 Minutes) The USGS With China Earthquake News — Hey, I like Twitter, but this entire thing Robert Scoble started about how Twitter had news of the Chinese earthquake before the US Geological Survey seemed absurd.
