El Chapo extradited to U.S to face Drug Charges
via LA Times
Mexico’s government said it has extradited drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman to the United States, where he is wanted on drug trafficking and other charges.
The Foreign Relations Department has announced on Twitter that Guzman was being sent to the U.S. on Thursday, the day before Donald Trump is to be inaugurated as U.S. president.
The convicted Sinaloa cartel boss had been held most recently in a prison near the northern border city of Ciudad Juarez. He was recaptured a year ago after making a second brazen jailbreak and had fought extradition since then.

The cornucopia of sexual content on hugely popular app Vine has been killed off by parent company Twitter. There has been a bunch of articles on whether they could whether the storm and keep the sexually explicit content on the app but they caved and people will now have to get their sexual viewing pleasure from the other kabillion sites and apps on the net.

The Onion Finally Apologizes for calling Quvenzhane Wallis “…a cunt…” on Twitter
Still wondering why it took so long. Read the apology below from the CEO. Furthermore this will be a blessing in disguise for her, because this Oscar shitstorm will only make her bigger and people keyed into her new projects which include a movie with megastar Brad Pitt.
Dear Readers,
On behalf of The Onion, I offer my personal apology to Quvenzhané Wallis and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the tweet that was circulated last night during the Oscars. It was crude and offensive—not to mention inconsistent with The Onion’s commitment to parody and satire, however biting.
No person should be subjected to such a senseless, humorless comment masquerading as satire.
The tweet was taken down within an hour of publication. We have instituted new and tighter Twitter procedures to ensure that this kind of mistake does not occur again.

The network has had the circus that is Charlie Sheen join and get probably a record breaking Twitter followers in 24 hours, and one of their biggest celebrity users Ashton Kutcher’s account was hacked. With this happening if Ashton decides that he will no longer use the site because of this compromise will more big time celebs follow and ditch the service?
The two tweets following the hack were, “Ashton, you’ve been Punk’d. This account is not secure. Dude, where’s my SSL?” and “P.S. This is for those young protesters around the world who deserve not to have their Facebook & Twitter accounts hacked like this. #SSL”
The tweets were posted to his account @aplusk on Wednesday evening and were still on his page as of 8:50 p.m. Eastern Time (screenshot below).

WTF!!!!! Chris Brown’s Mother Says ‘Michael Jackson Died So That Chris Brown Could Live’
Chris Brown get you momma off twitter!
Now people have a right to say whatever they want but I am gonna take exception to what Chris Brown’s mother is talking about. We understand you love your son like the majority of mothers do but you may have stepped in it big time saying that ‘MJ died so that Chris Brown could live’. I think that is a great disrespect to MJ,his family and is absolutely stupid statement and you need to be just happy that people are starting to warm up to Chris Brown again after his even stupider Rihanna incident. Chris Brown get you momma off twitter!

(Just due to the fact that he had over 2 million followers makes this a story).
The debate about celebrities using Twitter has been chronicled in a bunch of different articles that have examined the pros and cons of the social network.

Sorry Souljah Boy, Ashton Kutcher, and Kim Kardashian, Nobody Has a Million Twitter Followers
Found this great article from my new favorite blogger Anil Dash, who exposes the reality of celebrities like Ashton Kutcher and Kim Kardashian with large Twitter followings that reach in to the millions. Though these guys have relished in the fact of cracking a million followers, Anil challenges that there is absolutely no value in running up the Twitter follower scoreboard. He gives great analysis on actually being put on Twitter’s suggested user lists and getting hundreds of thousands of new followers. Fantastic analysis and should be an article for individuals, small businesses and major corporations to read when crafting their social media campaigns.
Last week, I wrote a bit about what it’s like to be on Twitter’s suggested user list. The response to that post has been really gratifying, and I wanted to share a bit of what I’ve learned, as well some of the more interesting responses.
First, to recap: I had about 18,000 followers of my own back in October, when I got added to the suggested user list. (Let’s call these “organic” followers.) If I’d have continued my normal rate of growth, i’d have about 25,000 followers today, but thanks to being on the list, I’ve got close to 300,000 followers. Surprisingly though, I only get as many retweets and replies as I’d get with my organic number of followers.

Myspace and Facebook to join forces?
Wow! This was something a few years ago we would have never thought could be possible. Figures because the newly appointed head of Myspace is an ex-Facebook executive.
via Newser
– High-ranking executives at both Facebook and MySpace confirm that the companies are in talks over some sort of content partnership—a development that isn’t a big surprise to at least one observer. Formerly intense competitors in the social-networking sphere, Caroline McCarthy writes, now “Facebook’s the one providing the platform for the content; MySpace is the one providing the content itself.”
While MySpace can boost its claim as “a pop culture hub,” McCarthy adds on CNET, “for Facebook, meanwhile, you could take this as a ‘look, we’ve won’ move. After all, it’s a validation of the power of the social network’s content platform that a company like MySpace—which used to dwarf Facebook in size—would want to use it for distribution.”
