Lebron James finally jumped on the band wagon: by joining the multitude of NBA players with Twitter accounts.
With his impending free agency status still unknown, Lebron decided to create one identifying himself as the “King of Akron” in his bio description.
This was Lebron James’ first tweet:
I have been a member of twitter since August 20, 2008 and honestly, I don’t really understand how twitter works and no idea on how to tap its power to benefit my site. I just tweeted links from my site hoping that the members of the twitosphere will check it out.
However in 1 year, my Google Analytics shows me that I only received 342 visits from twitter.
Last December 2009, Google announced a new feature allowing real-time streams of updates from various social networks as well as headlines from news and blog posts published just seconds before to appear in its search results page.
“Our real-time search enables you to discover breaking news the moment it’s happening, even if it’s not the popular news of the day, and even if you didn’t know about it beforehand.”
Pauwi na kami ng Tacurong City nung hapon na iyon. Galing kami sa paglilibot ng mga paaralan sa Datu Paglas, Maguindanao para magbigay ng orientation tungkol sa aming mga programa.
Nang kami ay mapadaan sa hekta-hektaryang puno ng saging sa tabi ng daan na pagmamay-ari ng La Frutera, bigla kong naitanong sa kasama ko:
“Bakit ba sinasabing paborito ng unggoy ang saging samantalang kahit ni isang unggoy eh wala ka naming makikita dito? Di ba kadalasan, ang unggoy eh nakikita mo sa bundok, dun sa maraming mga punong kahoy? Tsaka kahit ano naman kinakain nila eh.”
Ang sagot ni Lyndon, “Baka dahil sa kwento ni Jose Rizal na ‘Ang Pagong at ang Matsing’”. Hmm, may punto siya.
Shaquille O’Neal might currently be in China on a promotional tour for shoe company Li Ning but he found time to twitter his love for Michael Jackson who recently passed away. Apparently, he is a fan. And a BIG fan at that.
This is what Shaq tweeted.
The link points to a music video for “Beat It” Shaq and his team mate Damon Jones made when they were still playing for the Miami Heat. Yes, the video is old but Shaq dug it out from his vault to release it as his personal tribute to the “King of Pop”.
The song “I’ll Be There” is one of the hits for Michael Jackson and his brothers when they were still together as The Jackson 5. It was the first single from their Third Album in 1970 and subsequently becoming the most successful single ever released by the group. “I’ll Be There” sold 4.2 million copies in the United States, and 6.1 million copies worldwide.
In 1992, Mariah Carey and Trey Lorenz covered the song during Mariah’s appearance on MTV Unplugged. The song became her sixth number 1 single in the US. Their duet was nominated for the 1993 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals, losing to Boyz II Men’s “End of the Road”.
When I logged-in to my twitter account today, I noticed that the hottest trending topics are for the keywords “Ron Artest” and “Lakers”. My suspicion was immediately confirmed when I found that Houston Rockets forward Ron Artest was sent to the newly-crowned NBA champion LA Lakers. As free-agents can not sign until July 9, Artest and the Lakers have come to a verbal agreement to the tune of a three-year, $18 million deal.
Do I smell a repeat?
