Weekly Twitter Round Up



A long weekend, the Vancouver Film Festival, Thanksgiving day family activities, and some much needed R&R pushed back my Twitter round-up a few days, but better late than never. Tweets concerning Steve Jobs topped the Twitterverse this past week and broke the record for tweets per second—10,000 to be exact! The Occupy Wall Street movement is also gaining steam and Twitter is playing a key role in helping to circulate information and organize new gatherings around North America (including Vancouver this Saturday). All in all, a very hectic and fast-moving week. Here are some of my favourites:
