    Thanks for the comment. My intent was not to suggest that what happened was anything other than ’invertent’ and unintentional. My point was more to show that such confusion can take place, particularly if there isn’t total transparency and clarity. As we saw, some folks assumed you were an authorized spokesperson for US Airways, given the name, even though your profile indicated otherwise. Clearly people didn’t even take the time to read that.

    Hope that helps to clarify the context of the slide.

    You could very well be right, although everything I’ve read to date suggests that the first photo was taken from an office building before the ferries had even gotten close (I’d have to dig up the links), a point that seems to be supported by the fact that there isn’t a ferry in sight. All in all, both happened within minutes which simply reinforces the growing influence of citizen journalism during a crisis.

    cheers,

    Brendan

    I was totally not intentionally 'brand jacking'... In early January I had started Tweeting about US Airways policies and procedures as a way to help people with their travel, because US Airways did not have a Twitter presence.

    I loved working for US Airways (and Twitter) so it just seemed like a fun little side project.

    Never in a million years would I have thought I’d be in such a position only 10 days later.

    I only tried to post what seemed accurate, and gave attribution to the original posters - serving as an aggregator of the information, if you will.

    My Tweets are US Airways specific because I have only worked for one airline.

    I’ll betcha can guess which one...

    Thanks for including me in the online analysis!

    I think Tweetpic had the first photo & mention online (at 3:36 pm), not Flicker (at 3:49 pm)...

    Tweetpic photo was taken and uploaded by Janis Krums with his iPhone while on one of the ferries that was headed to rescue people on the plane.

    Twitter post via tweetpic with link to photo:

    (indicates 2:36 pm because he’s originally from a different time zone, iirc).
