Here, I’ll go first… this is all from memory, so I’m definitely missing some things. I especially can’t remember the many deaths that I first learned of on Twitter.

• Anna Nicole Smith’s death
• Earthquake in China
• Charlton Heston’s death
• Heath Ledger’s death
• Both crane incidents in New York
• Ted Kennedy’s seizure and subsequent brain tumor diagnosis
• Ice was confirmed to be found on Mars

Most of these items were tweeted by friends whom I follow. The exciting announcement from Mars came from their Mars Phoenix Twitter account. As I’m starting to follow more traditional sources of news, I expect to learn of other breaking news and be led to their websites for more information.

Ok, your turn…
