in The appeal of Twitter — part XVII on Mathew's comments
It's funny, all the Twitter love on Techmeme got me thinking this morning. Put me in a reflective/retrospective mood. I obviously blogged about it:

mathewi I wouldn't disagree with you, Andrew -- the downtime is frustrating,
and I wouldn't be surprised if something came along and stole some of
Twitter's thunder (although both Pownce and Jaiku have tried but not
succeeded, as far as I can tell). It's really the phenomenon I'm
interested in, not so much the specific app.

I wish that Mashable had a pre-publishing grammar troll. Just in case we didn't know when this incident happened, it is mentioned three times in the same sentence: "this week".

"This is something that I’ve seen amplified this week with the avalanche of Twitter follows I’ve reciprocated this week since Adam urged me to publish the Twitter names of the Mashable editorial and writing staff this week"

About 1/6th of the words in this sentence are "this week". More like "that's weak".
