Last weeks US arlines plane crash in to the Hudson, sparked a whole load of Hudson twitters on the Twitter network. As it was so close to such a densely populated area (I.e. New York), it was to be expected that this was one the first places that the story broke.
It’s a great example of how quickly times are changing. How modern technology and the creative ideas being implimented by modern technology are changing the world we live in – daily.
So what’s next?
A few years ago if someone had said to you that on your pc you would be able to go to a website and write something for anyone to read, and it would be really popular with millions of users worldwide. You probably couldn’t have imagined it, never mind understood it.
Who would have thought that something like this would break the first big story of 2009, before CNN, before BCC before Reuters.
So next time you hear an idea, on how to do something different, don’t just dismiss it, stop and think. Could it be… could it work… You never know where it might end up.
