Ashton Won!

In the war between one man and the "establishment," Ashton Kutcher became the first twitter user to reach one million followers.

To the surprise of many, the real purpose of this competition extended beyond the ego of a movie star. It's about having a voice in the media. We create it and report it, and as Ashton said, "We can change media forever!"

About 8 hours ago, CNN used its television anchors and tickers to encourage people to follow it over Ashton. Ashton used the internet. It came down to the wire. And, Ashton won.

In the meantime, I lost 2 followers.
