    That was a hilarious interview. I’m surprised Biz Stone wasn’t sending Tweets while he was doing the interview. You said that Stephen Colbert isn’t a fan of Twitter and believes it’s all a bunch of “hot air,” then why does he have a Twitter account (which was mentioned on the video)?

    I do love my Twitter and I loved Stone's definition: "The messaging system we didn't know we needed until we had it."

    Best one-liner from Colbert (asking about the first Tweet)..Was it, "What hath god twat?"

    Thanks, Biz, for going on national TV and continuing to make any half-credible business person in SF look like they were dressed by their mom before high school gym class.

    Colbert was funny as always! On a more serious note, I was glad to hear that the business model has a rational roll-out schedule.

    And seeing "tweetup" getting national coverage was gratifying. I'm credited with coining the phrase two years ago: http://www.wordspy.com/words/tweetup.asp

    While I'm not a big fan of Biz Stone, he handled the questions / jokes from Stephen very well. Nice interview.
