- popzero, on 11/01/2008, -1/+34This is cool, but what happens when something really attacks?! Will people just laugh off the inevitable Zombie Apocalypse? It's all fun and games until something eats your brain, people!

- TheCheeks, on 11/01/2008, -0/+6"However, it appears this is the first time the service has been used for mass fiction."
Uh, they've done a zombie attack before. - popzero, on 11/01/2008, -0/+5Boy Scout motto: Always be prepared.
Zombie Survival Motto: Boy Scouts can make excellent distractions. - WhoRadley, on 11/01/2008, -0/+4Your girlfriend is J. Adam Moore?
- lebondarken, on 11/01/2008, -1/+4Prepare for the coming end brother. Remember, leave one bullet for you. I'd rather be dead than my brains eaten by a McCain supporter.
- Markpdotcom, on 11/01/2008, -1/+3Exactly! I'm hoping twatter run out of money soon, so I don't have to read their spam on digg ever again!
- nickdotvr, on 11/01/2008, -3/+5Haha, you did @user ... an obvious sign of twitter addiction!
- popzero, on 11/01/2008, -0/+2Those UNWILLING to think about the Zombie Apocalypse may find themselves UNABLE to think about much at all!
- anneimal, on 11/01/2008, -3/+5I love it. Twitter used for mass fiction. Brilliant!
@popzero - the inevitable Zombie Apocalypse is no joke! Ever! Those who don't take it seriously, well, there's a reason they're not on my Zombie Survival team. - JoeBeardie, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1@ has been used for years, especially on IRC. Longer then twitter has been around for at least

- toleshei, on 11/01/2008, -2/+3Why tag it with #wotw2 though? totally gives it away.
- MtheoryX, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1You should get that checked out soon.
- statrick, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1psy-ops
- inactive, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1I love stuff like this, but I think the time has passed when something so simple can grab people's attention in the same way and on such a scale as what happened with the WOTW broadcast. The internet has kind of conditioned most intelligent people to disbelieve everything before believing it, I think.
- Goombellaofgoom, on 11/02/2008, -0/+1It's a twitter flash mob! Sweet!
- jmorato, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1Sounds like new-age LARP'ing to me.
I'm just saying. - eigenweasel, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1Put an extra layer of foil on - you'll be fine.
- 4degrees, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1lets not fool ourselves here, lets just call them "twits". :-P
- eigenweasel, on 11/01/2008, -0/+1This is old, Digg has been running its 'Zombie Commenter' theme for years.

True, but was it practice, or crying wolf? Vigilance! - Kevleviathan, on 11/01/2008, -1/+1It wasn't entirely spontaneous.. I was listening to Buzz out Loud and they read an email from a guy asking everybody to follow wotw2 and it was orchestrated there.
- logandurand, on 11/01/2008, -2/+2This is pure genius. They call it "spontaneous order," I think.
