Twitter Numbers
Kyle Jones, someone I believe is a relative newcomer to the comment section at OKC Central, claims he “crashed” the twitter poll and that “one person” did most of the voting.
The poll as Friday at 5:30 p.m. had more than 2,700 votes. The twitter account set up on my behalf, without my approval, now has 66 “followers.”
Complicating the mission to find out the truth is that the blog traffic reports we get are mangled up every week or two. That happened today.
Not sure what to make of all this. I’ll announce Monday whether I’ll be waving the white flag.

Kyle, now level with me – a lot of your fellow twitterites are wanting to join up – did you really hack the poll or are you just having fun with all of us? 
I wouldn’t call it hacking. The poll uses cookies to track votes. Disable cookies and you can vote as many times as you want. I just made a script to automate the process.

people expecting you to give it a try. Follow at least 30 people(or better everyone who follows you), read the David Pogue article on NYT
