Great Post About Twitter & CB Radios

Twitter has taken off in Dubai. Perhaps partly in thanks to radio host Catboy? I’m not sure. But either way, check out “Twitter, CB Radio of the 21st Century” over at Idea Sandbox. It’ll bring on the nostalgia if you fit into the mature category or maybe help explain CB Radio to the ah, less mature.

Besides me = loving twitter, I think the post appeals to me because my part-time job baaaack in my university days was that of dispatcher. (I was “base” on the radio. Everyone else was an assigned number.) Tangentially, this means that I know what calling 911 is like and it doesn’t freak me out. It also means that I’ve worked some nutty hours. Perfect practice for being a copywriter in Dubai, eh?

Anyway, enjoy!
