Follow him @OHHDL

Update: It’s a hoax. Twitter confirmed that the account violated Twitter’s Terms of Use on Impersonation.

Okay, will the real Dalai Lama please create his real Twitter account.

dalailamaRecognizing the importance of 140-characters, The Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama has officially joined Twitter yesterday, February 8.

You can join the 20,000 followers at @OHHDL. So, I followed him. Let’s see if he would reciprocate and follow me too. It would be cool telling others that THE Dalai Lama is following my boring and nonsense Twitter updates.

With an estimated six million users all over the world, Twitter is a must messaging platform that should be used to get your point across– just like what we’re all doing.

    I would be very surprised if I found out that this was not a hoax of some kind…

    Having said that, I hope it isn’t a hoax. It says a lot about the expansion of technology as we know it.

    Thanks!
