After the 5th anniversary of Shorty Awards, a couple of friends (old and new) @gregory @semel @yiyinglu @tomspano @scyshirley @theschlis were hanging at the @theponybar in NYC.

@tomspano (Events Manager of @Twitter) asked me, ‘Since Twitter’s now became more and more stable, there’s less chance for folks to see your “Fail Whale” image. How about something opposite from the Fail Whale? - Success Whale?” Everyone goes “Nah, that doesn’t rhyme!” @semel then proposed: “How about the Success Loch Ness?!”

And the rest is history:

@tomspano @gregory @semel @scyshirley @theschlis Here it comes! The #SuccessLochNess! twitter.com/YiyingLu/statu…
