As promised, the Oprah has come to Twitter.

Though the news came out yesterday, today was Oprah’s first official day on Twitter, and, yes, she has posted some Tweets already.  Also, as expected, her follower count is growing at an insane pace.  When we posted yesterday, she was already at 48,000, and now she is sitting at over 171,000.

As Oprah introduced her audience to the concept of the service, she also had Ashton Kutcher on the show to talk about his being the first user to pass the 1 million followers mark.  The videos are embedded below, but it seems to be more about rambling than actual information.  They are interesting to watch though if you;re a fan of the service because it feels like it really has arrived now.
