Whether or not you think TechCrunch should be publishing the stolen Twitter documents, it's pretty awesome to think of this situation from the point of view of the documents themselves.

How clever of them to choose Google Docs as their home and then to escape into the hands of a troublemaker. And then the best part: manipulating TechCrunch into releasing them to the public.

We can basically think of TechCrunch as an information puppet: send it an email with an interesting payload and stuff gets published on the other end.

How wild is that?
