Last night I was part of a Google Wave webinar. However, I was also tracking the results of the Veon court case on twitter. On top of that, I was text messaging a friend with the results of the court case while also IM-ing important pieces of information from the Google Wave webinar to Ben. Through it all I kept thinking the coverage of the Veon court case was a really spectacular use of new media. There were descriptions of the emotional environment in the room and peoples’ reactions as well as the verdicts. Even one of the people involved in the case tweeted when he was pronounced not guilty! I’m still trying to fully understand the impact of all these technologies and their uses on the world.
