Social Media’s Night Before Christmas
A little bit of Christmas cheer – Merry Christmas Eve from the Techyness!!!
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a iPhone was stirring, not even a mouse.
The kindles and gadgets were wrapped under the tree with care.
In hopes that @The_REAL_SANTA would soon would be there.
We all know that he has done social media strategy right,
Because of the pressure on him this fateful night.
So the teams worked hard all year,
Watching the networks, even those peer to peer.
So, the twitterati were nestled all snug in their beds,
With visions of replies, re-tweets, and DM’s in their heads.
While monitoring the social web there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter.
Away to the window, I flew in a dash,
Tore open the shutters and took out my iPhone- but oh no flash!
Not even the camera could capture the new-fallen snow
As I tried to twitpic the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering smartphone lens should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, powered by eight tiny reindeer.
As I whipped out my flip cam, and was turning around,
Down the chimney @The_REAL_SANTA came with a bound.
He was outfitted with gadgets, from his head to his foot,
Although the touchscreens were covered with ashes and soot.
He spoke not a word, but updated his status and went back to work,
Uploaded a photo to flickr, downloaded an app, and looked at me with a smirk.
He sprang to his sleigh, and replied to me on twitter,
And away they all flew, those little reindeer critters
As I opened the app on my phone before he drove out of sight,
He sent me a message: “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!”
But if you want to track Santa, follow his journey on Twitter, Facebook, or on his web site for up to date information on his whereabouts via the NORAD center in Colorado Springs. According to Mashable, the account is being maintained by “Bitz the Twittering Elf.” We all knew elves could twitter.
