The Draft is All a Twitter?
Everywhere you turn these days it seems like someone is talking about the social network Twitter. What began as a social experiment for many to keep track of what their friends were doing is now becoming a paradigm shift in communications.
I’ve personally been playing with Twitter for a little over a year trying to evaluate where it makes sense and what it can be used for. As an Information Technologist I am paid to attempt to look into the future and see where emerging technology can be used.
I have a long list of potential uses for business and personal communications but I have to admit; there is no way I envisioned this technology would become a tool to be used by Major League Baseball for their first year player draft.
