The Twitterati in Iran

twitter_logo.jpg

Twitter in San Francisco must be uncommonly proud. Its service is defeating the Iranian censors. As this article indicates, Ahmadinejad government is playing "whack a mole", wielding centralized technology by theocrats against distributed technology in the hands of democrats.

(UPDATE: The most disturbing Twitter reports are of non-Farsi-speaking thugs attacking students and others in Teheran. Twitter reports believe they are Hizbollah and other imports. Many are on motorbikes. Michael Ledeen has fine analysis at Pajama Media. (Final note: It's nearly noon Tuesday in Iran. The country is literally on its own time--eleven and HALF hours later than Pacific Coast time, which is to say, eight and a half hours later than the East Coast.)
