Recently Oprah found out about this big net thing that let’s you get information on stuff called the Internet. Soon after finding out about this ‘Internet thing’, she found the website Twitter (you know the time wasting website with the dumb owners who can’t answer questions in interviews?) and created an account.
Now with anything Oprah does, she blabs on and on about it on her television show, “The Oprah Winfrey Show”. And naturally anything Oprah likes, does, eats or says, the salivating dogs, oops, I mean stalker crazy fans will also like, do, eat and listen to everything Oprah says and does.
So Oprah goes “Folks, I’ve found a special website that allows you to send messages on the Internet, oh my god people, can you imagine such a thing that allows you to do that?”. Her audience then gasps in amazement as they have never heard of Twitter, let alone the Internet before.
So then, a few thousand soccer mothers bug their children to find this Twitter thing because Oprah uses it. Now here’s the trivial question: Will these new signups thanks to Oprah’s big fat mouth be one signin wonders? Will these baby making, male hating feminists use it once because Oprah does and then forget they signed up or don’t know how to use it due to their tiny brains?
I think Oprah has just bloated Twitter with a lot of users who won’t do anything but inflate Twitter’s user count, which I am sure they will be grateful for as they can use it to gain more funding if they need it.

Is there any deal twitter has got with Oprah for publicizing twitter?
I signed up to Twitter like two years ago, before it was “the thing”. Logged in once, tweeted once and then never signed in again. The funny thing is that I still get emails on a weekly basis that says so and so is now following you on Twitter. WTF.
