AHA MEDIA visits La Casa Gelato and uses Twitter to tell about the experience in real time in Vancouver
AHA MEDIA took trip to La Casa Gelato near Commercial Drive in Vancouver http://www.lacasagelato.com/.

We wanted to treat ourselves after working very hard at Vancouver Digital Week doing livestreaming, live twitter, mobile new media photography and videography with our social media connections.

Keeping with our new lessons from the week, we decided to keep using Twitter, a fantastic social media tool to keep interacting with each other and our community. We have a very strong desire to stay connected and keep learning 🙂
We picked La Casa Gelato as it was near our area of the Vancouver Downtown Eastside ( DTES). Our purpose was two fold – to eat some great ice cream and to use “Twitter” to “tweet” or give live updates on our dining experience. 🙂

We created on Twitter a new account: @Tweets_and_Eats
We combined the two words of “Tweets and Eats ” to make a new word called “Tweats” and built a new and separate Food Review site for our dining experiences in Vancouver

Here is a photo of Peter Davies trying to “tweet and eat” at the exact same time.

Please follow us on Twitter @Tweets_and_Eats and our new site at http://www.tweats.wordpress.com
AHA MEDIA aims to continually be progressing in their knowledge so that may do better mobile new media production 🙂
