Comcast on Twitter?

On Twitter this morning I posted that I was going to find a local Comcast service center to return my modem and when I got back I noticed that, what? Comcast posted a reply...

Weird and kind of creepy if you ask me. All I did was mention Comcast and they are right there trying to help me, I didn't say I had a problem, all I said is that I was trying to find a local store... I'm not one to usually care about privacy issues, but this is pushing it.

What are you doing? That's the question. The whole idea behind Twitter is that you can say what your doing and if someone wants to know, they can take a look. Kind of like away messages in AIM, except for your whole life. The guys over at Commoncraft have put together a really good video explaining "Twitter in Plain English."
