Ashton Kutcher wins Twitter battle with CNN

Kutcher triumphed over CNN in their much ballyhooed race to be the first to reach a million followers on the microblogging Web site. Kutcher surpassed that benchmark in the early morning hours Friday, narrowly edging out the breaking news feed from the Time Warner Inc.-owned network.

Speaking in a live webcast early Friday, Kutcher took the tone of a revolutionary.

"We have shown the world that the new wave is here," Kutcher said on ustream.tv shortly after passing the million mark. "It is present and it is ready to explode. You guys are all of it because I can't follow me."

Kutcher now has introduced Twitter to Oprah.  Will the current King of Twitter be sorry for introducing the Queen of Media to Twitter and will Oprah become the new reigning champ over him?  She gained more than 130,000 followers in less than a day, suggesting Winfrey — so successful in television, magazines, books and other media — would thrive on yet another platform.

Has the internet taken away from the normal face to face or telephone conversation and what does this mean for the future?

What do you all think?  Do you Twitter or Facebook? Or do you use both?
