The Tiger-Gate story is an amazing example of the power of Twitter and the Internet-- I received a BNO news report on my Blackberry 45 minutes before it was released by CNN. Thanks to Google and Twitter the info came out almost an hour before I saw the crawl on the bottom of my ESPN football screen. This is why the internet is going to be the RUIN of major news networks and traditional ways of communicating.
Now, the Tiger story is not the most important thing-- and there is really no reason we all needed to have the early scoop-- but think about a national emergency. Who will do the best job of getting out vital info-- the "Emergency Broadcast System"... ( and their annoying sound effects), or an Internet presence that can blast out Tweets to millions with the stroke of a key--- and it is viral! From earthquakes, to fires, the situation in Iran, or campus shootings-- the power of the internet is the future of information!
