Sports, drama, reality shows or political events – you name it, someone is tweeting about it. A UK-based blog revealed that 40 percent of evening traffic on Twitter is TV-related, and a video on the official Twitter blog says many TV-related conversations happen through #hashtags, @replies to the program or other users, or through “curated tweets” that get pulled into chats moderated by news networks and blogs.

When I see a program being talked about on Twitter, I’m more likely to watch it, or at least check it out. And when I’m watching TV, I typically have the Twitter app open on my BlackBerry Z10 or Blaq for my BlackBerry PlayBook tablet so I can watch the online conversations happening in real time. It’s fun reading the trash-talk during sporting events and it’s a great way to track the score while on the go. I also love reading and commenting about plot twists and character mishaps during primetime – just no #spoilers please!

Hey all you fans of AMC’s hit drama Mad Men — if you’re like me, you’ve always wondered if you’ve got what it takes to land a dream job at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. Well, wonder no longer — we’ve got a fun new app for your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet that puts you in the hot seat. Mad Men Job Interview lines you up with the SCDP team for an open position in the office.

Think you have what it takes? I took the interview myself today and landed a position as a copywriter (a sweet job, though not quite as cool as blogging for Inside BlackBerry), while my good friend Alex landed the Account Executive job. Sure it’s easy for him to gloat, but who knows, I could be the next Peggy Olsen (well, the male version anyway) and rise through the ranks.

Be sure to download the app from BlackBerry App World™, take the interview yourself and be sure to let me know if you were a strong enough candidate to be hired on. See you in the SCDP office!
