Who to Follow on Twitter for San Diego Comic Con 🦉

Since I began at SDCC, every year Twitter has helped me more and more. In 2010, it gave me a chance to have Nathan Fillion sign my Serenity comic. In 2011 I got into the Nathan Fillion panel at NERD HQ at the last moment. In 2012 it gave me the chance to get in line early at Nerd HQ to get a picture with Elijah Wood.

My suggestion to you is to turn on the Twitter notifications on your phone during SDCC to alert you to potential awesomeness. You are going to get a LOT of tweets, but at least there will not be a missed opportunity!

Otherwise you are out of the game. I charge my cameras EVERY night regardless of what the battery indicator says. Usually I just let them die, but for SDCC I don't want to risk it.
