I looked around the Lazy E Arena this past weekend and marveled at the number of people on their smartphones, iPads and other sources of technology.

Some were surfing the Internet, others were taking photos, and others were keeping up with the news and notes of their interests. That meant Facebooking and Tweeting, and the Lazy E was taking advantage of social media. While working the Timed Event Championship, I posted many little tidbits about the goings-on in the arena. We even posted trivia questions, where fans who were in attendance could win prizes.

I knew we’d have a few people on site who would keep tabs on the activities, but I was amazed at the number of folks who were part of the Facebook and Twitter exchanges. That’s proof that we go about any means possible to gather the news we want.
