Conan Meets Sarah – A Cute Story (3/11/10)
|
|
Well if you don't track twitter then you would not have heard this story of Conan O’Brien following a random girl from the twitter neighborhood named Sarah Killen. Sarah Killen had just 3 followers before Conan started following her.
To announce the event of following someone randomly Conan tweeted “I’ve decided to follow someone at random. She likes peanut butter and gummy dinosaurs. Sarah Killen, your life is about to change.” That was the best part of the story and after that Sarah has been rubbing her status next to celebrities with lots of tv interviews and MTV appearances.
From just 3 followers to over 20000 followers (at the time of writing this post) she is growing and she is growing fast. At the personal level, she and her fiancé had been announcing the amount of gifts they have been receiving after Conan made them famous.
After the famous out cry even Sarah's Mom has come on the twitter and named her account promptly as Sarahkmom. Who knows Conan may even follow her.
Kinda cool, eh? She’s been on all sorts of news programs now, and getting tons of attention. On Good Morning America this morning, Sarah’s fiancé announced a request that Conan be the best man at his wedding!
TwiTip Twitter Tips.
