Here’s yet another example of how Twitter is taking a foothold in today’s society — how tweeters are benefiting the world at the same time.
A street in a Palestinian refugee camp has been named after a Twitter account, Wired.com reports. This could be the first known instance of a street being named after a component of the growing social network giant.
@arjanelfassed tweetstreet has been named after the @arjanelfassed Twitter account.
Arjan El Fassed paid $146 for the street name in the Askar camp, the tech magazine and Web site reported.
In addition to getting the word out to more people about the social networking site, the money is used, Wired reports, to fund educational activities for the children in the camp.
