If you don't know by know LeBron James will choosing his next NBA team (or perhaps staying in Cleveland) via ESPN in a prime time special at 9pm ET.
Why will LeBron break the Internet?
Joined Twitter as @KingJames yesterday… 279,400 followers when I started this post now 280,748…
It took 2,242 tweets for @chrisbosh to get to 172,260 followers. LeBron (@kingjames)? Just 1.

Where is LeBron?
Want to know where Lebron (or at least the person tweeting for him) is?
Take the Location details from his Twitter account and put the numbers into Google Maps.
Hint: Turn off Location update when tweeting from UberTwitter.
Perhaps LeBron needs some training from Sports Geek?
LeBron Online Launch?
Why not launch a personal site & take control of your Facebook Fan page while you have the world's attention?
What is it doing? Collecting email addresses, smart strategy why not hit up the sports world email boxes with new offers from King James?
Check http://bit.ly/apxlxx (lebronjames.com) for updated info on my decision.

But the most staggering is the traffic hitting up his new website from that one tweet via Bit.ly.
Still not convinced about social media being an effective platform for sports & athletes? Why not?
