Tonight’s show is a follow-up from my post yesterday about social media being used by evil people as it sparks some thoughts in Sean that he wanted to talk about. Luckily it turnout that the person behind the Twitter account talked about isn’t really a murderer but rather an artist trying to spread the boundaries of Twitter conversations.

That doesn’t change the fact though that as pure as we in the medium might like to think social media is there is the potential for bad things to be done bad people who will use tools like Twitter to broadcast their intentions or actions.
