Twitter is no more just a social networking site. It is almost like the Venus Flytrap, it looks so beautiful from the outset and if you are not cautious, then you might just end up losing more than just your face.
Two gentlemen in the name of: Shashi Tharoor and Lalit Modi, got to know this in a very crude manner. The Mr Devil-May-Care Twitter, aka Shashi Tharoor, had his flings with the wrong side of tweeting a long time, but then he tried to go a bit too far, when he tried to get IPL-icious. But we should also credit the man for the words that he has given to the oxford dictionary: Cattle Class, Herd Mentality, etc. I think the UPA govt was a bit more patient with him, unlike his other Karmic Brother, with whom BCCI was not very paly with. So the other Karmic Brother: Mr IPL, aka Lalit Modi, himself was also not far behind and when he divulged a bit more than he should have on the tweet, which he forgot was a social networking site and was, probably, thinking aloud. His super bosses decided to give him GPL (kick in the ass, the desi style)., nothing to do with GPI.
So thus the mighty fall.
Moral of the story: Mind your words and Twitter will definitely be sweeter.
I hope Mr SRK and Aamir are listening...
