Twitterpated

Never let it be said that I don't eventually come around on these newfangled technological fads: Teebore is now on Twitter!

That's right, you can follow me on Twitter @AustinGorton (there goes my secret identity...), or via this blog (my five most recent tweets now appear beneath Dr. Bitz's infrequently-updated Doctor Manhattan Twitter feed on the sidebar).

In addition to learning stalker-ish and generally pointless things like when I'm going to the gym or how much I liked the dinner I just ate, I'm planning on tweeting immediate reactions to the TV shows I watch, as I watch them (including shows not regularly covered in the "Last Week in TV" posts), as well as a weekly heads up about which issue of X-Men is coming up next in "X-aminations" (which will become increasingly useful as the year goes on and we start covering random non-X-Men issues like Avengers Annual #10 more frequently). 

Also, I'm already following a ton of people funnier and smarter than me on Twitter, so you'll be privy to all of their great stuff that I retweet.

So welcome to 2007 folks; it's gonna be a great year!

Great Moments In Sports Tweeting

Twitter has become the next big thing. People's attention span are so short now that 140 characters of information is all we can handle in one sitting. Twitter has changed the way a lot people get their information and the way a lot of people give their information or idle thoughts or removal of all doubt of their status as a fool. However, almost nothing has felt Twitter's affect more than the sporting world.
