Golden Globes


For some reason the Golden Globes were not on TV in Australia this year.

I suspect it may be because Mr Murdoch and his digital/cable network snapped up the TV rights.

Anyway because I knew I couldn't watch it, I didn't have to avoid media outlets in case they mentioned who won what.

So I turned to Twitter. Yes Twitter.

It really proved it's worth yesterday, as the Golden Globe feed provided update after update to my Mac during the course of the day.

Brilliant!

Seems odd that the Golden Globes wouldn't be broadcast in Australia...Happy to hear you were able to keep up with the results via social network!

Our timezone is not suited for us to watch Golden Globes live (it's in the morning where everybody is supposedly off to work) so I turned to Twitter too. Yay!

I think your Twitter transformation must now be considered complete. Welcome to the machine, my friend.
