Twitter Nabs Google’s Lead Android Evangelist. Next Target: Students
After a bit of a slow start, the Android app ecosystem is now growing at a rapid clip, as it nears 100,000 apps. One of the people Google can thank for that is Sun Hu Kim, their lead for Android developer marketing. But come Monday, he won't be pitching Android anymore, he'll be pitching Twitter.

Former Googler And White House Staffer Katie Jacobs Stanton Heads To Twitter
Twitter has made another key hire today: former Google vet and White House and State Department staffer Katie Jacobs Stanton. According to Stanton's Tweet stream, she will be leaving her role at the State Department for greener pastures at Twitter. She will be based out of the company's California office.

Twitter’s Lastest Promoted Tweet Directs You To… Facebook
When I first saw the latest Promoted Trending Topic this morning on Twitter I thought it was a bit odd: "Predators." Given the times we live in, when I see that term now I tend to think of something more alarming than some kind of an animal or the like. But fear not, the topic is being promoted here simply to showcase the latest movie in the Predator series, called, yes, Predators. But there's something else weird about this Promoted Trend... #TC #Twitter #Facebook

Twitter + Vuvuzela. What More Do You Need?
Twitter has been having a bit of difficulty remaining stable during the World Cup. But in some ways, it's a nice problem to have -- they're seeing higher usage levels than they ever have. To some users though, the combination is extremely annoying. Anytime a team scores a goal, tweet streams become a solid chunk of "GOAAAAAALLLL" "#ESP GOOOOOOALLLLL", etc. But it could be worse: at least Twitter doesn't have vuvuzelas. Or does it?

You’re Dead, Unless You Tweet Otherwise
Short version - a false report about renowned Dutch DJ Tiësto dying in a car accident spread via Twitter, was talked about so much that it ended up in trending topics, and was ultimately denied by the man himself via his own Twitter account.
I increasingly find it disturbing that false information can make the rounds so quickly these days, and I've sadly long realized this is an unstoppable, irreversible yet disheartening trend.
Somewhat longer version - ... #TC #Twitter

Twitter Explains What @EarlyBird Is: It’s All About Distributing Advertiser Deals
ReadWriteWeb had a solid scoop last week when it uncovered Twitter was set to go live with an account called @EarlyBird. Well, it has just gone live, with a tweet pointing to this page where the company explains what it's all about.
Looks like Twitter is about to start offering users exclusive, time-bound deals, events and sneak peeks, for which it has partnered with a number of (yet unnamed) advertising partners. ... #TC #Twitter #Earlybird

LeBron Tweets, Blames Chris Paul For Making Him Sign Up
Here it is, the first tweet from LeBron James. No, he's not saying where he's going -- at least not yet.
Instead, James uses his first tweet to acknowledge that it's really him (though Twitter still hasn't verified the account, I suspect they will soon), and notes that it was fellow NBA star Chris Paul who got him to sign up. Here's the tweet: #TC #Twitter

Did LeBron James Just Join Twitter To Tweet Where He’ll Sign?
The world is waiting to know where basketball star LeBron James is going to sign. The free agent is expected to make his decision some time in the next few days, and you can undoubtedly expect a large press conference to follow. But could it be that he'd tweet out his decision first? Perhaps.
All indications are that James has just joined Twitter under the name KingJames. It's not a verified account yet (we have a message into Twitter ... #TC #Twitter

Um, Why Exactly Is The NBA Paying Twitter To Promote LeBron James?
It's already fairly impossible to escape hearing about basketball star LeBron James these days. It seems that no matter what TV channel you put on, what website you read, or what social media site you're on, talk of him is rampant as the world awaits his decision on which team he'll sign with. That's why it's a little odd that the NBA decided they needed to pay Twitter to promote James a bit more. Yes, he's the latest Promoted Tre... #TC #Twitter

NBA Free Agency Shows Twitter Has Put Athletes In Control Of Daily Narrative
It's free agency season in the NBA, and the only people who are more excited than the fans are the nation's sports reporters. How easy it is to be a sports reporter in 2010! Thanks to Twitter, you've got guys like Chris Bosh dropping morsels of information all day long.

Waze Taps Into Geo Tweets. Facebook, Foursquare, iOS 4 Come Along For The Ride
When it comes to mapping applications, Waze is probably the most fun one out there. It turns turn-by-turn navigation into a social experience, and a game (think: Pac-Man). It also happens to be free. And a few new features rolling out in the updated iPhone app today make it even more interesting.

Twitter Slashes API Rate Limits In Half Across The Board To Deal With Capacity Issues
As you may have noticed, Twitter has been having a rough month. Due in part to traffic from the World Cup, Twitter has had its worst month in terms of uptime in a year. The Fail Whale has been out in full force, and it's partially Twitter's own fault as they're trying to overhaul their internal network during this time of high traffic. And today they've announced another move to help deal with network strain: an... #TC #Twitter

Bettween Makes Tracking And Sharing Twitter Conversations Even Easier
Twitter recently launched a tool called Blackbird Pie that enables anyone to easily embed single tweets on their blogs and websites. But it doesn't offer a solution for tracking or sharing conversations between Twitter users.
Enter Bettween, which does just that, stylishly.

When Social Media Becomes The Message: The Gulf Oil Spill And @BPGlobalPR
Nearly everyone has something to say about BP's oil spill, and from a public relations perspective, the company is floundering. Both its stock price and brand value have taken a deepwater dive, and it is struggling to make its own voice heard.
When you Google "BP PR" or "BP public relations," the top organic result is @BPGlobalPR, a parody account on Twitter with more than 175,000 followers. In contrast, BP's official ac... #GreenTech #TC #Twitter #PR #Bp #BPGlobalPR #TonyHayward #Satire

Japan’s World Cup Win Over Denmark Scores Record Number Of Tweets Per Second
Last week we reported that Twitter saw a record number of Tweets-per-second (or TPS) after the Lakers win over the Celtics in the deciding game of the NBA Championship. That event generated 3,085 TPS as the game ended. On an average day, Twitter sees about 750 TPS and 65 million total Tweets a day. But with the World Cup causing massive traffic to Twitter, this record was bound to be short-lived. Today, Twitter announced... #TC #Twitter
