Ashton Kutcher (@aplusk) threw down the gauntlet and challenged CNN (@cnnbrk) to see who could get 1 million Twitter followers first. ChartBeat has a live chart of the @aplusk vs. @cnnbrk shenanigans.
If Kutcher wins, I will lose faith in humanity. Again.
(To make matters worse, Oprah is joining Twitter and will talk all about it on her Friday show. I will not be watching. In fact, I may be forced to kill my Twitter account and start penning letters in order to communicate with others.)
