Twitter 2012

13 Lashings
Dropped Feb 26th, 2009 by Ted Murphy in social media

This week I spent some time thinking about what a fully Twitterized world may look like. My mind raced in many directions, so much so that I can’t seem to stop. I am bursting at the seems with ideas and want to share them with you. These thoughts keep me up at night:

I had so much fun working on these that I invited my friends at IZEA and MindComet to contribute. My tweeps Marty, Chris and Patrick came up with some great concepts. Check them out:

Marty did the football player, the tattoo and the airplane. Chris did the JP Morgan sign. Patrick did the EMT.

I would love to have more people contribute.

I am going to make this an ongoing series of posts that will feature my ideas along with other tweeps. To submit your idea for consideration please send an email to ted@izea.com with the subject “Twitter 2012″. My only rule is the submission must be a quality manipulation of a real photo that makes me think without a need for a description.

Great post, Ted!! Best thing I’ve read (and looked at) in a long time. Image #2 (Clear Channel ticket) and #4 (White House briefing) are closer to coming true than we might realize.

If I were a pro football player, I’d so put that on the back of my jersey.
