It seems wherever you go – you hear about what people are using Twitter for. From reporting the most groundbreaking news story to sharing information to friends – there is definitely a wide range.
However, what about when you play computer or video games? Yep, even those! 🙂 When I think that I have seen it all with social media and Twitter – I read that now you can tweet while you play World of WarCraft – it is called TweetCraft (I just love the logo!!). The Twitter application allows gamers to tweet as they play the game and upload screen shot pictures from the game for their followers. Interesting!
I have played Warcaft a few times, and I was amazed that not only do people playing the game create a new online persona and name, but they can also participate in business transactions and network with other people in the same line of business. Amazing! I wonder what will be next – TweetLink perhaps or Tweet Mario Kart? 🙂 It will be interesting to see how the technology of games and the advancement of social media integrate together. I do believe that this would be an interesting line of research to pursue in social media and communications. 🙂 Here is a video from YouTube on how it all works.
Hope you all are having a great day! 🙂
Best Wishes,
Karen
