The Titanic is On Twitter

April 15 marks the 100th anniversary of the Titanic sinking, and now you can follow the Titanic in real time as if Twitter were around in 1912.

@TitanicRealTime seems to belong to The History Press, a history book publishing company based out of the U.K. The first tweet was sent out this past Saturday, March 10 – exactly one month before the Titanic journey begins … err, began. Right now tweets consist of little vignettes from the perspective of the ships engineers, officers and crew. As of today, @TitanicRealTime has 21,911 followers and has only tweeted 11 times. I am excited to see how this story unfolds on Twitter, and especially how it interacts with it’s “new-age” followers.
