Idea #27 Follow your favorite hockey team matches on a Twitter feed with pictures & sounds included
As I was watching the game Slovakia against Finland tonight (what an amazing game by the way, really too bad for Slovakia), I found myself checking my twitter feed to see what people were saying. That made me think of all the times I had access to twitter but not to a TV, a computer, or an Internet access fast enough to watch a live game. I thought it could be really fun if we could read a hockey game on Twitter, in real time with all the best of the game in many tweets. Pictures of the goals could be updated as well as audio files. It'd be nice to hear an almost live: "he shoots, he scooooooores!", it would make following the game on Twitter much more real. Tweets would have to be fast, concise and well written. Users should have the choice to follow the team they want, so it means one feed per team would be required. Eventually, all sports could be covered.
Money wise, they're could be sponsored tweets during intermissions for beer companies and cars for example, just like on TV. Hopefully the advertising would be better targeted to a Social Media channel and would tap into the opportunities it offers such as interactivity, comments, crowdsourcing. This channel would offer a richer way of delivering a hockey game than radio and would be very convenient for people who have only access to a cell phone for instance. It could also be used as a complement to TV.
