UberFacts creator, Kris Sanchez spoke with Fast Company on how he made a lucrative business out of his Twitter feed. The Brooklynite created his Twitter account originally to follow and keep track of pop singer Britney Spears.

“I also joined Twitter to follow Britney Spears” he told Fast Company. “But I didn’t have anything to tweet about. So I figured, hey, tweeting these facts would be a really good idea. It was just so I could feel like I was closer to her.”
