Syracuse.com and Twitter
- Tweeting on Black Friday
As I read the Sunday edition of The Post Standard today, I was pleasantly surprised to see Syracuse’s local paper and Syracuse.com embrace the popular micro-blogging tool Twitter.
They’re appealing to “Twitter-ers” to keep the community instantly updated throughout Black Friday shopping by tweeting on “where the bargains are found, who’s out of stock, who has stock, how long the lines are, even what you had for lunch…” The tweets will be here on Friday.
It will be interesting to see how many people in Syracuse join in the fun as Syracuse still seems to be a bit behind on Social Media front, at least business-wise anyway.
I, for one, will not be tweeting about shopping because I dare not step foot in any store on Black Friday, but I will be checking out the tweets of the brave!
If you are a Twitter-er, tell us your “handle” and we’ll check you out. Check us out on Twitter here.
