@JLin7


Have you heard about what is "Linsanity" from NBA?
Yes, Linsanity refers the player who plays Point Guard for New York Knicks for 20111-12 season and whose name is Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin is a player from Harvard University. He had a very incredible story about his career life in NBA.

Jeremy Lin had a wonderful performance starting from the middle of this season and made big contributions for Knicks when Melo and Amar injured. He also helps Knicks for many straight wins
However, he also got injured and surgery before the Play-Off season and he is was no able to come back during Play-off season.It definitely hurts Knick to the way of Play-Off season.

Although he only played 17 games in the 2011-12 season, people were all crazy for his contributions to Knicks and called him "Linsanity"
Here is the highlight that he got 38points against Lakers


I am so exciting to see his performances in the next season and hope he can play better and better.

@Jimmyfallon

Wouldn't you like to see your tweets on national television!? These seems to be a popular way for late night hosts to get their audiences involved in their content. Asking their twitter followers to take part in "hashtag games", where the best tweets with the specific hashtag will be shown on air. It is a great way to use social media, as a platform to get all audiences involved. This weeks "hashtag game" is #thatsmymom, here's Jimmy's tweet: Here is another example provided by Jimmy Kimmel, only he decided to use Youtube!

Make sure you follow @jimmyfallon, and tune in to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon week nights at 12:35am PST on NBC to see if our tweet made it!

@lululemon


In class this week, we covered the topic of video marketing. I brought up the trendy lululemon athletica as an example of a company that makes use of videos for product demonstrations. Recently, lululemon launched their swim collection with a video featuring three of their ambassadors doing paddleboard yoga in the apparel.



I know I'm the travel guru on this blog, so listen up. You should follow @lululemon because they are a global company, with retail locations across the world and headquarters in Vancouver, British Colombia.

@airfarewatchdog

If you're anything like me, finding a good deal on your flight is almost as satisfying as that first mojito at the beach bar. The tweeter your should follow next is @airfarewatchdog and here is a tweet from earlier today:


This tweet is a great glimpse at the types of deals airfarewatchdog features. Southwest Airlines flights can't be found on search engines like Kayak, Expedia or Orbitz, so airfarewatchdog is really creating a  competitive advantage by doing so. Another great thing about airfarewatchdog is their "Today's Lowest Fares" tool on the homepage. It features the top 5 cheapest flight from your home airport for the day. Looks like I need to plan a trip to Wenatchee...


Don't forget to follow @airfarewatchdog, then book that Wenatchee trip!

@CP3 (Chris Paul)


Hi guys, Enjoy NBA playoff so far?
I want to talk about my favorite basketball player from NBA, Chris Paul!
Chirs Paul is an all star player who play PG (Point Guard) in Los Angles Clipper with career average 18.9points and 9.8 assists per game.
Clipper got the 5th seed for playoff season this year.
They had a tough game against Memphis with a Epic come back from down 27 points tonight.
I started watching NBA in 2007. Chris Paul is the key that pull me into the world of NBA
The first NBA game I watched on TV was New Orlean Hornet which was Chris Paul's original team during time time.
Chirs Paul was the player that caught my eyes very much in that game and I was impressive by his skill.
Here is a video of the career hight for Chris Paul

I enjoy the way he play unselfishly and the way he pass the ball to his teammates.
Therefore, I want to share this player with you guys

Make sure to follow him: @CP3


And Enjoy the rest of Playoff season :)

@RainnWilson

So i finally caught up on my fan mail after the success of my first post. So lets get back to it!

 Do you watch NBC's The Office? (That was a rhetorical question...I really don't care what your answer is people!) For those of you who do enjoy you are familiar with Dwight "D-Money" Schrute, who's lack of social skills and common sense cant be helped but to capture the hearts of mostly female viewers. Oh by the way his Twitter account is hilarious as well.

My favorite tweet from @RainnWilson:

With tweets ranging from random thoughts, shots at other celebs and social figures, to reminders on his upcoming shows - you can tell he lets his different characters come out through his tweets. Though he doesn't do much tweeting at others or re-tweets, if you're looking for a little hilarity during your office break (no pun intended) he may be your guy. Trust me, I'm a blogger.

On the bio section of their Twitter, Lonely Planet makes a promise to interact with their followers. "We read your posts" and "We re-tweet the best of them" are two huge commitments this company makes, and by looking at their page, it's evident they follow through. 

Two other things I like about @lonelyplanet 1. frequent use of hashtags and 2. they followed @followdatweeta back!

@stephenathome

They say women find humor to be attractive when looking for a significant other, I'd say the same when recommending a Twitter account to follow. With over 3 million followers, you could say I was a little late to the party, but nonetheless I promise you humor filled yet surprisingly informative tweets from Comedy Central's very own Stephan Colbert.

Here's the tweet that caught my eye:
With comedic tweets ranging from commentary on the political front, to shout outs to Middlebury College in Vermont, to random thoughts that enter into Colbert's head, and out his fingers - his tweets are short, to the point, and definitely funny.  Many 'tweeters' are accused of having ghost writers write for them, but my sense is that Stephen Colbert is his own author.  His sarcasm is consistent in everyone of his tweets.

He's able provide some comic relief for those who may have forgotten to have their daily laugh. If you are looking for more from Mr. Colbert, his show The Colbert Reports airs 11:30pm Monday-Thursday on Comedy Central. Also be sure to follow @StephenAtHome

It's been 55 years since Arthur Frommer, founder of Frommer's Travel, published his first of many travel guides, Europe on $5 a Day. This guide revolutionized the way American's travel in the late 1950's, but Frommer's continues to offer sound advice through more modern mediums. Today, Frommer's still prints guides to destinations across the world, but also offers online travel advice. Because of their information-rich website and convenient presence on Twitter, Frommer's Travel is being recognized as a tweeter to follow for travel!

Here's the tweet that caught my eye:
With Spring Break a few short weeks away (hallelujah!), most of us are frantically trying to pull together a decent vacation. This tweet spoke right to my heart and gave me 15 great ideas for getaways. My favorite idea was the Yoga Vacation, but I also loved the bit on Las Vegas and their feature photo of, in my opinion, the greatest pool in Vegas: The Shark Tank at the Golden Nugget
