Christopher Kamka: Twitter was launched July 15, 2006. It changed the way we experience live sports. We all missed out on watching the 2005 World Series together through the lens of (what was then) 140 character bursts of fact, opinion and emotion.
Chuck Garfien: TechnoIogy was really starting to change around that time. I actually received the very first text on my Nextel right after the White Sox won the pennant in Anaheim. A friend of mine in Colorado saw me on TV and sent me a text. I looked at my phone and had no idea what it was.
