Tweckling on the Harshtag - Antisocial Media in Action

From the Anti-Social Media Dept

There was a conference on today, Higher Education Web in Wisconsin. I am in London minding my own business (literally - doing the books) in the UK when the Twitterstream starts spooling a proper Lacyration in real time (I'm not going to mention the poor unfortunate who got shafted, but he's in good company

)

Anyway, two new words coined here:

- Tweckle - to heckle on a Twitter backchannel

- Harshtag - a hashtag that has been given over to tweckling

Start here, and flip forward - and before you guffaw righteously, imagine - it could be you next time.....
