Twitter has a lot more power and information travels incredibly fast once its
on twitter. Once a tweet is sent out there is no reclaiming it or deleting it
permanently, once a tweet it is out there it is out there. A short while ago a
famous new channels twitter account was hacked and tweets where composed
alleging the white house was exploded and this went viral and caught a lot of
attention. Twitter can be a great tool but in the wrong hands it can cause
mayhem because it is received by such a large audience and in a matter of
seconds thousands of people may come across that information.
