Each time I log into Twitter, I feel a pang of pity for Pacific Gas & Electric. Now, I lived in Northern California for years and had no real love (or hate) for PG&E. But I still think it’s a tad unfair that the top sample post on Twitter’s front page has long been a complaint—by one of Twitter’s founders, even—about the utility company. You can’t make out the full message, but the line “waited all morning for PG&E” pretty much tells you that “Ev” isn’t in love with their customer service.
