On Sunday night, 9/11 mastermind Osama Bin Laden's death was reported on Twitter before it reached the major news networked. The first reputable source of information for Bin Laden's death was Keith Urbahn's twitter.
Urbahn, Chief of Staff for former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, tweeted "I'm told by a reputable person they have killed Osama Bin Laden" via Blackberry.
News spread rapidly over various social media networks, and Twitter and Facebook quickly became the place to be for people who wished to discuss the historic event.

Chicago – Image Entertainment released a spectacular Blu-ray release in September of “The Twilight Zone: Season 1,” an amazing set that will surely be mentioned when our year-end “Best Blu-rays of the Year” feature debuts in a few weeks. With “The Twilight Zone: Season 2” following quickly on its heels just two months later, the only concern was if they would drop the ball with the second release. Instead they have hit another home run.
Blu-ray Rating: 5.0/5.0
Of course, the primary reason to pick up both seasons is the quality of the program itself. It helped shape science fiction of all forms, not just television. It’s one of the most influential programs of all time and most episodes have held up incredibly well. There aren’t many programs from the early ’60s for which a shot-for-shot remake could air in 2010 and still be devastatingly effective. You can say that about...
