I was on my way home when the explosion happened. I live about 12km away, but felt and heard it enough to comment to my friend that it seemed like a big explosion. About 5 minutes later I saw a helicopter heading in that direction, so I made a mental note to check on things in the morning. Anyhow, to make a long story short, by the time I woke up (11-ish) the story was all over Google News. And it honestly never occurred to me to check Twitter. The first place I actually checked was blogTO. So, maybe this demonstrates that the web has changed news, but I'm not sure it says anything about Twitter. Did anyone see stuff on Twitter before other sites?
