Many things go around Twitter long before they are announced in the news, so that's what this thread is for. Of course, many rumours turn out to be false so take these posts with a pinch of salt. Anyhoo, rumours abound on Twitter that American billionaire investor Warren Buffett has been found dead.

I like the idea. Maybe we non-tweeters will get the interesting stuff without having to trawl through the myriad "just had a cuppa" or "my nighbour's dog crapped on the pavement" drivel.   BTW Warren Buffett sounds like a feast for rabbits. [edit] apparently it's a false rumour http://www.omaha.com/article/20120304/N ... 0309873/-1The Omaha World Herald is owned by Buffett's daughter.

This thread's been all over MySpace this morning. Some of the best of today's Tweets selected at random: "Nick Frost @edgarwright in degrees what was the treadmills' angle of climb?" "BBC Breaking News Scottish Premier League confirms probe into alleged non-disclosure of payments to players by Rangers FC - more soon. bbc.in/wL1VSA" "carina looking forward to dinner and drinks with @el01csy later #beentoolong" "Beatrix Von Bourbon Hahaha. I might've just set a teatowel on fire..." "Jayne Mills Shoulder now so sore it's giving me a headache  "

In that vein, then:
NASA said: "March 14 at @NASA_Wallops, NASA will launch 5 rockets in approx. 5 minutes to study the high-altitude jet stream! go.nasa.gov/AysEMl"
British Journal of Photography said: "Photographer and documentary filmmaker Tahmineh Monzavi has been arrested in her native Iran: bjp-online.com/british-journa…"
Mr Chris Addison said: "I don't really give a rat's ass about sport that isn't cricket but I absolutely love that Rory McIlroy's now Golf's Number One. Brilliant."
