#chetanblocks
On Monday 7/12/2009, sometime in the evening, the Indian author Chetan Bhagat blocked few people from his twitter account. Chetan (@chetan_bhagat) was having a debate with a journalist (@jojiphilip) on books and piracy, when he received some tweets which didn't gel with him. The result was him blocking those people from his twitter account.
Chetan Bhagat was ripped apart by twitter users when he lost his cool at the smart alec replies he received. He could have easily shrugged off the remarks but instead retorted angrily. More people joined in on the fun/bullying (depends on how you see it). The link above has details on how everything started out.
Moral of the story: Don't take anything in Twitter seriously. Shrug it off. Have fun.
