Twitter and iPhone Broadcast First Images of Hudson Plane Crash!

A customer with an iPhone, and a free Twitter client, captured the first images of the Hudson River plane crash!

Twitter, a fairly recent social networking app, can be a great tool for reporting breaking news. A few keystrokes and it's posted for the world to see. This means that the more tech-savvy citizens that are roaming about, the quicker, and more efficient, we'll get the breaking news that we are looking for.

Cool to see some practical, useful, and potentially livesaving applications for social networking products. I frequently joke with my buddy that we feel like 14 year-old girls, but the truth of the matter is that these products, now with their wireless adaptations, are becoming more and more commonplace and socially acceptable.
