New online job slot: Twitter Tweetist

p2pnet news view Cool| P2P:- Did you lot know a new online job category has come into being?.

It’s Official Salaried Twitter Tweetist, alternatively known as Ghost Twitterer

Twitter appears to be on the end of its first libel action — singer Courtney Love in the middle of it, says The Independent.

“Ms Love’s angry ‘tweets’ against her former fashion designer, Dawn Simorangkir, have landed her in court,” it says.

According to a libel claim lodged by Simorangkir, Love carried out an,”obsessive and delusional crusade” of “malicious libel against her on Twitter, adding insult on MySpace and other websites,” says the story.

Simorangkir also claims “numerous tweets posted by Love on Twitter accuse her of being a ‘nasty, lying, hosebag thief’,” among many other accusations.

Now Simorangkir is seeking punitive damages, “arguing that the comments have destroyed her reputation and her business,”says the story, adding official documents state, “Whether caused by drug-induced psychosis, a warped understanding of reality, or the belief that money and fame allow her to disregard the law, Love has embarked on what is nothing short of an obsessive and delusional crusade to destroy Simorangkir’s reputation and her livelihood.”

Adds the Independent, “Many celebrities, including President Obama, now use ghost-writers to update tweets.”
