Twitter, noted Web 2.0 thingy (my Twitter account is here; I don't really use it though), mentioned on its blog today that a Greenpeace person would be using it to report on undersea exploration. I can't help feeling a bit amused; Twitter has recently, if I recall correctly, been attempting to solve its speed problems by throwing lots of extra servers (energy-hungry servers, I'll wager) at the problem.
Mind you, Greenpeace also has a foothold in Second Life, the silly virtual reality environment, where each user apparently uses as much energy as the average Brazilian.
If they were to stick to their principles fully, of course, Greenpeace would probably have to address the Internet through machines powered by hippies (vegan ones, naturally) on treadmills.
