This could turn into a very big problem rather quickly:

The news on the web today is that Twitter may be heading to Hollywood.
Variety reported that a Twitter TV project was announced by Reveille and Brillstein Entertainment yesterday, May 25th. According to the Twitter Blog, they have merely a “lightweight” agreement with the producers, although there are a lot of related ideas in the works.
One of Brillstein’s exec producers involved in the potential project, Jon Liebman stated:
“We’ve found a compelling way to bring the immediacy of Twitter to life on TV.”
Of course they did.
It’s too soon to tell when we can expect an official Twitter television series, but we’ve been warned.

Here’s a tasty morsel from her essay:
I have never had the opportunity to attend SXSW but I suspect that it is rooted in the quirky, creative art world so many of us came from. The fact that Austin is its birthplace says that we will have the opportunity to connect with creative, innovative people – and I believe that is one of our practice’s most valuable attributes.
I have always tried to be active in defining and furthering the practice. I participate and volunteer where I can, but just attending is still giving back to the community.
It’s magically inspiring to find yourself surrounded by passionate people who do what you do! I believe it is vitally important to be eye to eye with our peers on a regular basis.
Ah, so that’s why I like Larisa so much—she’s passionate about her work, she constantly seeks knowledge, and she has respect for her peers.
I would love to tell you that she’s been doing victory laps around the office all day yelling “Woot! Woot!” but I’d be lying. She’s humbler than that. Congratulations, Larisa!
