NASA’s, well spaced ‘Tweet’

Astronauts aboard the International Space Station received a special software upgrade this week that gives personal access to the Internet and the World Wide Web via the ultimate wireless connection.
Flight Engineer T.J. Creamer made first use of the new system Friday, when he posted the first unassisted update to his Twitter account from the space station.

Earlier, the tweets made from space were to be e-mailed to the ground where support personnel posted them to the astronauts’ Twitter accounts.
Makes us wonder about the power of the blue bird: Will twitter be the first social media micro tool to travel through Space?
Happy tweeting!
