TTC Meet Angry Twitter



















Ryan thanks for the email and the link. Twitter really is a medium and more and more it kind of feels like the text equivalent of an old CityTV mechanism called Speakers Corner. Today for those of you who are not in Toronto the background is that the union representing transit workers decided to call a last minute strike (they had promised 48 hours notice- oh well - Thug like move). It created major problems but interestingly it was a badly calculated move - 10,000 transit workers have pissed off Millions of tax payers and customers. The tweets coming from people all around Toronto are pretty interesting they reflect the personal disgust most people have for what has happened.  Twitter mechanism for taking the pulse of what the influencers are saying.
