For the record, I un-follow people who have Foursquare connect to their Twitter feed. To me, that is noise, not information. I don&#8217;t care if you are now the mayor of Burger King.<\/p>\n<p>The Toronto Star video shows them testing the voice recognition capability that allows you to input a Twitter or Facebook update via the TV remote.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t get it.<\/p>\n<p>This strikes me as engineers building a capability because they can, not necessarily based on common sense. My social media activity is from me. It is personal. A big screen TV belongs to the household, and it is a shared viewing experience. It strikes me as selfish to\u00a0interrupt\u00a0a group viewing experience for a personal indulgence.<\/p>\n<p>Think of security issues as well. The idea of having to log in and log-out of a TV in order to protect the integrity of my social media feed is more than I could take.<\/p>\n<p>We have seen the transition from household based telephones to personal based mobile devices. We know that many people watch TV with mobile devices and tablets in hand, precisely so that they can add personal commentary on social media, from their personal appliances.<\/p>\n<p>Social media on a big screen TV strikes me as an idea with appeal limited to people who have no family or friends who ever come to visit.<\/p>\n<p>I doubt that would be much of a selling feature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had an interesting engagement on Twitter earlier today.
