@adventuregirl (a travel writer with over 600,000 Twitter followers) and friend hanging out with the Tinker team at #140conf

News flash: It’s no longer “new media,” it’s “now media.” That was lesson number one at Jeff Pulver’s recent 140 Characters Conference in New York City. Twitter and others forms of real-time media are changing the way we think about the web, and we at Tinker were super psyched to be part of the conversation about how real-time streams are changing the way we communicate.

We demoed the powers of Tinker to help you follow topics and events on Tinker and to distribute the conversation on your own site via our widgets. It was great seeing NBC News’ @AnnCurry and CNN’s Rick Sanchez spar over the mainstream media’s use and response to real-time streams and hearing from the founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey. It was great meeting and seeing you speak, @jeffpulver, @YuliZ, @adventuregirl, @shelly_palmer, @mickdarling, @zaneology, @niche, @juliaroy, @etanowitz, @garyvee and many more. Here are some photos.

We’ll be in touch with many of you and don’t hesitate to email us at support AT tinker.com with questions about how to create a conversation stream on your own site right now.
