Arnold Schwarzenegger Twitpics Emergency Landing

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger had his flight, uh, terminated on Friday evening when the cockpit of his jet filled with smoke.
The plane, en route to Santa Monica Airport, instead touched down at Van Nuys Airport after the pilot reported the smoke coming from the instruments.
Schwarzenegger, who has been TwitPic-ing many of his trips around the state, posted an image of the plane on the runway after the landing, along with the Tweet: “A little adventure just now when my plane made an emergency landing. All’s ok, though.”
Emerging Ecosystem
Twitpic is one of many add-on tools that’s blossoming thanks to Twitter’s open eco-system: Compete.com reports over 3.5 million unique visitors to the site last month. The simple photo-sharing site was also the venue for the first image from the Hudson plane crash: a landmark moment for Twitter’s role in the newsmaking process.
