Unlikely Tweeters
Twitter says it has more than 100 million active users – and some of the people sending out tweets might surprise you. Most people already know about such famous tweeters as Ashton Kutcher, Lady Gaga and Shaq. And Danny DeVito created a photo series of his foot in interesting places. However, whether because of their age, image or interests, some people just don’t seem to be likely fans of Twitter. For example, months after her death, the Twitter account of Amy Winehouse is still updated regularly for her followers. CNN lists some other surprising tweeters, along with a sample tweet:
Rupert Murdoch:“@rupertmurdoch Facebook a brilliant achievement, but $75-100bn? Would make Apple look really cheap.”
Mark Zuckerberg:“@finkd Tell your congressmen you want them to be pro-internet. My Facebook post is here ... .”
Don Rickles:“@donrickles
