Such a Social Sochi, Thanks Again Russia

Was able to imagine what is was like inside the Opening and Closing Ceremonies almost as if I was there, perhaps because I was fortunate enough to attend so many in the past.  The format quite similar to past Olympics, the content so diverse. Always SPECTACULAR.  (The ability to demonstrate a sense of humor made me think of Vancouver 2010.)

Here are a few “tweets” from watching, listening and computing:

Olympics go even more...mobile
Thousands of selfies
Whimsical uniforms
A visual fantasia, what a kick off
Shooting stars and classical visions 
Famous Russian authors’ flying pages
Terabites of pics per second
Segways
Halfpipe glory
Nail biter endings
Timing booths precision
Canada IS ice hockey
Super excited Russians, RUSHEEYA!
Team USA, stars were shining
A bit of blurry fog, mostly sunshiny days
Scott Hamilton’s got global appeal
I feel delight when smaller countries sparkle
Logog, sogog...rogog
Jellied meats and yah, McDonalds
Gotta love the geeky details
Athlete's tweets, everybody's tweets...so neat.
Was it an electric fan keeping those two flags looking pretty?
Heaps of sweeps
Holland so small, medals so many, evening celebration vibes could be felt everywhere

All athletes on all teams are winners

What a wonderful buzz it was. Thank you Russia, thank you world. 

More seeds for GLOBAL PEACE planted on our sacred earth.
