However, props to Prof. Littau for showing us the power of live tweeting. I honestly don't follow sports (unless it's Lehigh-Lafayette--I'm all for tradition), so I opted to "watch" Twitter instead of the game (and because I could do other things online simultaneously).
One thing that I believe is a hindrance to tweeting is having to have your computer at all times (if you don't have a smartphone.......like me--I promise I'm not a Luddite), especially if you're watching TV and eating messy, greasy food and people around you are drunk--I mean--clumsy.
Microblogging is for microtechnology--like phones or iPads (ugh, great concept, Jobs; horrible name).
And thanks to our professor's livetweet, I got to see the new Google ad, which everybody MUST see. It probably cost like $10 to make.
Interesting that you saw the ad because of a Twitter post. You'll find that the more you use it you'll follow people of similar interests, and that news that fits those interests will get to you through them because of it.
