Late Night host Jimmy Fallon is a big geek and is addicted to Twitter. So last night he appeared on G4's Attack of the Show to play Tic-Tac-Toe. Or, more accurately, to play Tweet Tac Toe (or #tweettactoe, in the world of Twitter hash marks). But they didn't play it alone. Fallon and the host actually got their Twitter followers to give them the moves.
Somewhere, someone is working on a Chutes and Ladders game you can play on LinkedIn, and it's going to be awesome.
I think the biggest problem with Jimmy Fallon is that even though I am in the exact demographic his show is targeting, 22 year old nerd with some disposable income that I spend on tech toys, I don't find a lot of his web stunts like this or having the Diggnation guys on entertaining at all. It somehow feels contrived to me.
And on top of that, after Conan left, I discovered Craig Ferguson, and saw no reason to tune into Fallon after that. He's so much funnier on a show with almost no budget at all. Maybe Fallon will get better with some more time.

That follower of Kevin's who told him to go for the middle was just seeking to fail.
