I don't think we needed Twitter to tell us which of these people is cool beans, and which one is a tedious divvy. And it's not too surprising that a word-loving geek like Fry would take to weblogging, podcasting and now Twitter like a duck to water, though he really does grasp these new media in a way that no famous type (bar, possibly, MySpace loon Courtney Love or regular blogger Kanye West) has done before.

A nice little interview with Stephen Fry about the web (which he compares to a city).
