@David: Thanks for your added insight. I think it’s cool that an outlet like HuffPo is experimenting with and embracing social media on such a huge scale. It’ll be interesting to follow up after Chirp!

@Jason: I think they might have some inklings about what Twitter will be announcing at the Chirp conference, but the sense I got from my conversation with Eric Hippeau was more speculative and hopeful on HuffPo’s part.

@Staci: Or maybe they have some intel re. Twitter’s future plans that supports this move?

@Jason wonder if they were trying not to get lost in the Chirp fest.

This is pretty amazing. Seems like their timing is a bit off with that Chirp conference a week away. Here’s us “HuffPo”-ing your news. Heh. http://lockerpartner.com/2010/04/huffpo-gets-more-social-with-twitter-edition/
