Whoa. Holy scheisse!
The net of this was that we’ve had an amazing 24 hours, adding another 10,000 members.
And, the big winner? TWITTER.

Twitter traffic to Fab.com jumped from 2% of total on a normal day to 10.4%.
It’s clear that Twitter has become the major news distribution medium on the planet, period.
Interesting what that means for journalism. News organizations write the news, but Twitter distributes it.
