Following Shashi Tharoor on Twitter

Gave in to temptations and started following Shashi Tharoor (check out the guys homepage http://tharoor.in) on Twitter (I seem to be the 242,089 follower). That guy does has a sense on humour - both Literary and Political. His two recent tweets gives it away. Quoting:

'Jaipur is a lovely city. Clean, well laid-out, spacious - even the parts that aren't "pink"!' 9.15 Hrs Sep 26, 2009

(in the Literary category) and

'Very pleasant call on ChiefMinister Ashok Gehlot at his official residence. Good tea, even better conversation w a gracious political leader' 9.46 Hrs Sep 26, 2009

(Political - after what Ashok G recently thought of ST, it is but "gracious" of ST to tweet this!!)

Shashi T being a ex-Diplomat and a current-Politician - does know the art of speaking one thing, thinking another, planning something else and doing nothing :-)
