Media around the world are using so-called tweets -- messages sent through the service -- from Tehran to supplement their coverage of the post-election upheaval. This has given the revenue-free Web site a credibility boost. But Twitter still hasn't proven it can leverage its popularity to make money.</description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jun 2009 14:05:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>The Bonus: Twitter craze is changing the face of sports</title><link>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/the_bonus/06/05/twitter.sports/index.html</link><guid>http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/the_bonus/06/05/twitter.sports/index.html</guid><description>Stewart Cink is a nice golfer -- ranked 29th in the world, a member of the 2008 Ryder Cup-winning U.S. team -- and one of the most affable, accessible guys on the PGA Tour. But the 17th flagstick at Sawgrass has more star power than the laid-back Atlantan. So why does a digital version of Arnie's Army, 280,000 strong and surging, follow Cink's musings on Twitter? Perhaps they are riveted by the revelations that he recently forgot the departure time of a flight, got lost driving around Jacksonville Beach and -- brace yourself -- refilled his allergy medication. Even Cink is bemused. "I'm honored," he said of the size of his audience. "I respect and am grateful to everybody choosing to listen to the b.s. that I've put on Twitter."</description><pubDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2009 20:15:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Celebrity Twitter: Too Much Information!</title><link>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20282275,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</link><guid>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20282275,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</guid><description>From Diddy's tantric sex to Kirstie Alley's pet name for her privates, some stars share too much</description><pubDate>Sun, 31 May 2009 19:48:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Tech sector has questions, few answers</title><link>http://money.cnn.com/2009/05/28/technology/thingsd_0528.fortune/index.htm</link><guid>http://money.cnn.com/2009/05/28/technology/thingsd_0528.fortune/index.htm</guid><description>Here's how scary the times are in the technology industry: Nobody, not even the visionary, congenitally optimistic smartypants who invent the technological future, has a clue about where we're going next.</description><pubDate>Thu, 28 May 2009 14:05:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Kutcher threatens to stop Twittering</title><link>http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Movies/05/26/ent.kutcher.twitter/index.html#cnnSTCText</link><guid>http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Movies/05/26/ent.kutcher.twitter/index.html#cnnSTCText</guid><description>Ashton Kutcher -- Twitter's top tweeter -- warned he may pull the plug on his tweeting if the micro-blogging service partners on a reality TV show.</description><pubDate>Tue, 26 May 2009 21:07:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Paris and Miley Hit Twitter after Earthquake</title><link>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20279672,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</link><guid>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20279672,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</guid><description>Plus: Heidi Montag, Paula Abdul and more check on friends, fans when rattled by the 4.7 quake in L.A.</description><pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2009 20:09:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>I found my job on Twitter</title><link>http://money.cnn.com/2009/05/12/news/economy/social_networking_jobs/index.htm</link><guid>http://money.cnn.com/2009/05/12/news/economy/social_networking_jobs/index.htm</guid><description>In today's tough job market, it's critical to stand out.
