# Viral Ex-Host Tweeting Conan Twitter Account Will Make People Love Conan O'Brien Even More By Brian G Randles | Published 2010-02-25 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conan-twitter References: [mashable](http://mashable.com/2010/02/24/conan-obrien-twitter-2/) & [twitter](http://twitter.com/conanobrien) Conan Twitter. Two words. Endless possibilities. Considering his brilliance when ‘Late Night’ had no writers due to the strike, and the [love affair generated](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tumblr-campaign) because of his epically awful dismissal from the ‘Tonight Show,’ courtesy of the upper echelon at [NBC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-cane-brownie), you better believe that the Conan Twitter account, simply named @conanobrien, will rival even the mighty @aplusk in terms of followers. For all those who worry Conan O’Brien will fall off… don’t. He is at his best when he is playing the underdog (‘Late Night’ jokes about a small budget and his jabs at ‘NBC’ during the ‘Tonight Show’ fiasco offered much better material than “Wow, isn’t this new studio nice?”) So once again, [Conan is on Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tweetlio).
