The first hint of this being taken too far is when the guy re-starts chopping his vegetables in order to get the perfect score for this activity. Technology is always there, always on – in a good way. We soon realise how all-encompassing the technology is, as the contents of his apartment are revealed to be entirely computer-generated.

I found some of the comments on Justin Mass’ recent blog post about real-time activity switching interesting.

Either way, these are all examples of people who are perceived to contribute to event backchannels in a really pro-active, consistent and valuable way. Some of these people are expert tweeters, others do more live blogging, photo-sharing or curating. Some do all of those things!
