WardblawG makes an appearance on Channel 4

WardblawG's twitter account made an appearance on Channel 4 on Saturday night, 12 February 2011. Channel 4's approach to social media is to be welcomed, encouraging use throughout the UK of both Twitter and Facebook to contribute to prime-time tv programmes. With tweeting becoming enabled from the UK courts, with certain important exceptions, we are slowly venturing into a golden age for social media, web 2.0 and law 2.0.
