Twittering the Iranian election aftermath

Courtesy of Andrew Sullivan, the website h3x.no has compiled a list of reporters and citizens on the ground in Iran who are tweeting the aftermath of the Iranian presidential elections.

Some media analysts have described the Iranian elections as a watershed moment for Twitter. Because the state has banned many official media outlets, Twitter has become one of the few outlets through which reports from inside Iran have been relayed.

(The Washington Post’s media columnist, Howard Kurtz, is out with his weekly column today, in which he claims — separate of the Iranian elections — that Twitter has moved beyond an “ultra-hip refuge for the perpetually plugged-in.”)
