When Twitter Blows Up At WWDC: A Backup Strategy

When Twitter blows up (and it will) during the week of WWDC, if you want to get @ me, you can find me on Brightkite.

Twitter is the new backchannel and it’s so much easier to get a hold of people with versus IRC thanks to its SMS support and iPhone Web apps like PocketTweets. Sadly, I don’t think it’s going to be able to hold up to the onslaught, so let’s have a backup strategy.

I have 4 invites for BrightKite available that I’ll offer to anyone that is going to WWDC (justin at carpeaqua dot com). If you’re not going to be at WWDC, please don’t ask for the invite.
