As I was waiting for my wife to finish work on Friday, I sat on a plush sofa in her large office building's lobby. Below is my live tweeting of someone being let go by two HR people as I sat there.
This was the first time I'd live-tweeted anything but it did cause me to think how powerful it is when people are doing that in real-time around events that really matter. The unfiltered, stream of conscious text goes some way towards making us feel like we're experiencing the event - much more so than a carefully crafted newspaper article...
Tweets are in reverse chronological order, so start from the bottom.
