Twitter Cements it's Status in the World—Premiring the First Chatter of bin Laden's Death
Well it's official, the Navy Seals completed their mission: find and destroy Osama bin Laden. President Obama addressed the nation on Sunday evening and confirmed the news.
Bin Laden has been a major target for US forces since September 11th 2001, almost ten years in the making, and was on our radars long before that. While the majority of American's high-fived on the news, much of the world is divided on the subject. Will this result in more attacks, destruction and despair or will the elimination of this leader soothe the violence? Only time will show us the answers like where we go from here and what happens next.
One thing that seems to have risen from this world changing event is the effect technology is having on our quest for news. According to Rueters.com the first mention of the attack on bin Laden was shared via Twitter by Sohaib Athar who currently lives near the compund where bin Laden was killed. His tweet posted in the early hours of Monday morning simply began "Helicopter hovering above Abbottabad at 1AM (is a rare event)." his increasing irritation by the noise keeping him from sleep & then the realization of what was happening is quite an interesting read (look up ReallyVirtual on twitter).
The news/rumors also broke into the spotlight in the US via Twitter. Keith Urbahn tweeted "So I'm told by a reputable person they have killed Osama Bin Laden. Hot damn." Leaving neigh-sayers of social media outlets like Twitter, unable to deny the effect and change these outlets are having on the world. Times, they are a-changing!
