    Radio host Steve Czaban, who has a national morning show on Yahoo! Radio and a local show in D.C., has bailed on his Twitter account — and given some very logical reasons for doing so. Some good insight here on the folks in the Twitter danger zone.

    Huge explosion of college boobies twitter accounts yesterday. I believe @KUBoobs started the whole thing. And a few short hours later, seemingly every college in the country was represented.

    My favorite name: @WarDamnBoobies. Solid profile picture, too.

    To me, that just seems like an acknowledgement that he's too dumb to be trusted with a keyboard.

    I have a Twitter account with my employer identified in my handle. I have yet to tweet anything that would get me in trouble. It's really not that hard.

    I suspect the scary thing for Czaban is that it's a lot easier to be held accountable for stupid shit you say on Twitter than it is for stupid shit you say on the radio.

    This is the kind of day Twitter was made for. Folks are KILLING it on the Te'o story.

    If Bin Laden's death didn't break Twitter, nothing will.

    I don't really like Twitter as I am a writer and see more pitfalls than good. However, I LOVE being on Twitter during prez debates and big NFL games.
