Twitter, the Torch, and NPR
Filed under Uncategorized
Today the spectacle known as the Olympic Torch Relay passed through San Francisco, but nobody who really wanted to see it — for or against — got to see it. Not that people didn’t try to find the updated route. Man Twitter is getting some interesting publicity out of this. “Twitterati,” I love it!
BTW, you can follow me on Twitter @jschwanz.
One of my favorite things about going into work on Wednesday mornings is I might be going in at the right time to hear my favorite segment on NPR’s Morning Edition. Frank Deford’s segment this morning was about the torch, and the Olympics in general. He’s got some interesting thoughts to go along with this already very interesting upcoming Olympic Games.
