Is Ryan Kuder the first person to attract national attention for losing his job (he was only 1 of 1100 people laid off from Yahoo 2/12/08)? Probably not, but his story is truly unique in that he, @ryankuder on Twitter, used the 140 character real-time posting mechanism to broadcast the play-by-play experience of being let go from Yahoo.
Some of the questions we covered include:
- How did you go from 50 – 500 Twitter followers in one day?
- What did your inbox look like after you were covered in TechMeme?
- Given your exponential increase in Twitter followers, did you feel pressured to maintain a high-level quality of tweets?
- Did anything come of the articles about you in the LA times and the NY times?
