NBC uses Adobe Flash to give viewers of 2010 Olympics a new way to see whats hot on Twitter

This year NBC has raised the game with its social media integration for the Olympics. On the website http://www.nbcolympics.com you can view information from Twitter under the Tweets and Blogs tab. NBC worked with a vendor to create Twitter Tracker which is a visual representation of the amount of tweets on Olympic events and athletes. The more a topic or athlete is mentioned the larger the photo representation of the topic appears. The Adobe Flash application allows for users to click a specific picture to drill down to specific tweets. All in all it is a very interesting way to use Adobe Flash to interact with social media web sites.
