Twitter is just a tool. A needle can't save a life unless it's in the the hands of a doctor or someone who knows how to use it. That being said, twitter is an excellent communication tool.

And I think that's pretty remarkable. I have no idea what the people at Twitter think of stories like this. I've never met any of them.

It can help if you need a rescue but I think SMS or a phone call is still superior. As for getting news using hash tags only 0.000001% of world wide incidents require immediate vs a few minutes delayed news. Plus how would you know the hash tag unless you already saw it from another source? So the actual pretense of this article is more over hype for Twitter. They thank you (maybe paid you) I am sure.
