Twitter it up at GMHockey

Any ideas on how to get such a thing off the ground? What about a GMHockey client for Blackberry? Thoughts tech savy people?

It would probably be better served to see if Forumotion had a mobile friendly layout that users could select when browsing with a mobile device. Creating a client just to browse GMHockey's forum seems like a lot of effort for a single function.

Setting up a twitter account now...if there is anything you want me to twitter while at the game I'll learn how and start to do it....

Believe me, there's nothing to it. You have 140 characters to tweet with. You just...type what you want, when you want. That's the beauty of it.

Twitter whatever you would like to tweet. If you think there's some suggestions that you'd like Sens management to know about it's probably a good place to write that stuff.

If you want a united GMHockey voice to tweet it then post it in here and we'll put it up if it's something we feel should go up there.

I thought I'd tweet some stuff happening at the game...empty seats, atmosphere specific things about new players...Ie tonight how Condra, Keller, O'Brien are playing.

Most of those guys you only see for brief seconds on TV but at the game I can watch them specifically.

That would be sweet.

Yeah, exactly that kind of thing is great.

Who's MrMontagoose? I don't just follow GMHockey - I favourite it.

Re-read the first post.

Maybe because you need to update your account to SIRMontagoose?

Believe me, I've thought about it. I don't think you can do that, though, not without creating a new account.

Info on the go no matter where you are.

I'd bet the client is cheap/free, but the blackberry and the monthly plan are a little less so.

Don't forget to add a # character before searchable keywords. Whatever you think would be keywords people would use in a search if they wanted to find information you were tweeting.

True, I just learned that.

Just going through the Help for Noobies page now...need to understand the # and @ references. I guess I've been confused when reading Bob Mackenzies twitters...he tweets messages to people obviously in response to stuff, but I can't see what the original post was for reference.

I think I'll stick to what the crowd is like, stuff happening during the game. How players are playing.

Stuff like that and go from there

You'd bet right.

Ok....I'm on Twitter...i'm sure my wife and family will be so proud of me.

If anyone cares to follow, then I'm 22_4_ever

twitter.com/22_4_ever

Also if you let me know who you are I'll watch for tweets during the game and when possible (ie when I'm there and not being hounded by my wife, will look to answer game specific questions). For example, I haven't seen Kuba in a while is he injured..
To which my response hopefully is...nope...he's sitting where Elliott/Lehner normally does and they are sitting at the end of the bench with the d-men. hopefully he's benched permanently...

Can't find any 22_4_ever. Just follow me on Twitter and I'll find you that way.

don't ask me...I'm new to all this...if I put twitter.com/22_4_ever in my browser I see my page.

I just found and "followed" you...could it be a security thing? I've checked and don't see a setting restricting people from finding me, but who knows...
