Berners-Lee already has over 2,500 followers, but we don't doubt this number will increase quickly, as he remains a very influential thinker and speaker. He won a Webby award for lifetime achievement this year, he got one honorary doctorate and awaits another only in 2009, and he spoke at the Web 2.0 Summit just yesterday.
So, what was his first tweet? Amazingly, he complained about a "confusing user interfxce," but hours later connected his Twitter and Facebook accounts with identi.ca. Cheers, Tim, we wish you a lot of happy tweets!
