Hugo Chavez has been a controversial figure in world politics. It was only a time before he entered the blogoshere. His reasoning?

“The opposition thinks it owns the social networking sites – they think Twitter and Facebook belong to them.”

Chavez’s first official tweet?

“Hey, how’s it going? I appeared like I said I would: at midnight. I’m off to Brazil. And very happy to work for Venezuela. We will be victorious!!”

Always trying to grab attention, Chavez once went on the air with his radio show for 8 hours and 15 minutes without resting. Will he gather a massive following online? What do you think?
