  • NFL Allowing Players To Tweet During Pro Bowl

    According to CNBC’s Darren Rovell, NFL players will be allowed to tweet during the Pro Bowl game in special areas on the sidelines.

    Of course with the strict rules the NFL has with social media like Twitter and Facebook, the players will not be using their own personal phones or tablets, rather they will be using “a computer station set up on each sideline” as quoted by Rovell. With the Pro Bowl game being more of a of skill show rather than a competitive game, the NFL’s laxation on the rules is understandable.

    Even with the “Freedom of Tweets”, the inability to use personal devices seems a little funny. Rovell tweeted that the stations are “unsponsored”, meaning they won’t sport any brand names. However, do you suppose the NFL will eventually become permanently lax and let players tweet every game or, do you think it’s just a one time deal? Let us know in the comments

  • The State Of The Union, Thug Life, and Skylights

    Twitter is a wonderful place for one-liners. To be funny on the site, you’ve got to be sharp and practice economy of language. You’ve only got 140 characters to make an impression.

    And what better way to wind-down the work day than with a selection of some of the day’s most entertaining tweets.

    Today, the Twitterverse is buzzing about all aspects of Tuesday’s State of the Union address. We also find some funny tweets from McDonald’s failed #LittleThings Twitter hashtag campaign. Oh yeah, and Rihanna tattooed “Thug Life” on her hands.

    Enjoy!

  • SOPA Tweets Top 2.4 Million On SOPA Blackout Day

    Twitter didn’t go dark to protest SOPA / PIPA on Wednesday, although some thought they should. An argument against Twitter shutting off its service was that it would severely hamper the flow of information about the other SOPA Blackouts. Basically, “where are we going to talk about SOPA and PIPA if social networks shut down?”

    On that note, Twitter said that from the moment Wikipedia went dark to 4 pm on Wednesday, there were over 2.4 million SOPA-related tweets making their way through the Twitterverse.

    2.4+ million SOPA-related Tweets from 12am-4pm ET today. Top 5 terms: SOPA, Stop SOPA, PIPA, Tell Congress, #factswithoutwikipedia 15 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    Probably the most amusing top term was #factswithoutwikipedia, a hashtag trend that lasted nearly all day. People did their best to make up ridiculous facts that might exist if we didn’t have Wikipedia readily available.

    The SOPA blackout was also a success using another metric. Google announced that 4.5 million people signed their SOPA petition featured on their homepage yesterday.

  • Kanye West Ends Twitter Drought With Rant On Design, Education, And Steve Jobs

    Kanye West Ends Twitter Drought With Rant On Design, Education, And Steve Jobs

    When I first joined Twitter, one of the first people that I followed was humble rapper Kanye West. I’d been told of his amazing Twitter presence by a trustworthy friend, and so I decided to give him a slot in my then-limited stream.

    And as anyone who followed Kanye back in ye olden tymes knows, he did not disappoint. Whether he was discussing the merits of beef flavored pineapples, fur pillows or even ninjas, Mr. West was always a bright spot in my Twitter stream.

    Then something happened. Kanye stopped tweeting. Well, he didn’t really stop tweeting altogether, but the volume of tweets went down – way down. So much so that there were week-long periods where we didn’t get one single musing from him.

    But now, it appears as though Kanye might be back as a Twitter force, as he went on a nearly 100-tweet rampage that spanned only a few hours on Wednesday evening.

    And during that rampage, Kanye tackled the Grammys, the education system, and announced a new design company called DONDA. During all of that he also slipped in some stuff about Steve Jobs and Michael Jackson. All in all, a successful little thought stream.

    Here’s what Kanye says about his idea for DONDA:

    I have started a new company and I’m so excited about the name…. it’s got the best name ever of all companies of all time!!!…. 14 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    …To dream of, create, advertise and produce products driven equally by emotional want and utilitarian need.. To marry our wants and needs. 14 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    A little vague perhaps, but you can’t say it’s not a large-scale idea. He also took on this year’s Grammys:

    I appreciate having the most nominations at the Grammies but I feel so conflicted by the fact that award shows sometimes are completely… 14 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    …illogical 14 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    I wouldn’t have the prestige I have if it wasn’t partially for the Grammies validation and I honor that 14 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    And the visionaries we need to model our thoughts after to achieve all of this? Michael Jackson and Steve Jobs, of course:

    We need to take what Michael Jackson felt and Mcqueen and Steve Jobs and we need make things better… 13 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    Kanye ended the night with a George Bernard Shaw quote:

    “If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. …. 13 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    …But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.” – George Bernard Shaw 13 hours ago via web · powered by @socialditto

    Despite what you think about Kanye’s big ideas (and I happen to agree on some of the education stuff), you have to admit that it’s a blast to run through it all. Legitimate big ideas or drug-induced ramblings, it doesn’t really matter to me. It’s just nice to have one of Twitter’s biggest stars back in the game. Let’s just hope he stays there. I’m sure some of this new batch of tweets is worthy of a stitching.
