Sh*t My Dad Says TV and Book Deal. Tweet-ching!

in Business, the Social Web

Justin Helpern started tweeting things his dad said, now he has over 700,000 followers, a book deal and a just announced TV deal.

Giddy up! It just goes to show the vast changes happening to our media landscape. As Techcrunch put it,

“Yes, you read that right. A 20-something just landed a TV deal thanks to his Twitter account. Again, not a website, not a book (though there is a book in the works too), just a Twitter account.”

I love it. Best of luck Justin!
