Really? This is where we are? You don't get recording important moments to you? They think their team is about to win the Super Bowl. They're framing a shot. It's possible to hit record and then still watch. I still have cell phone video and pictures of everything from the Bruins parade to the Celtics making the finals to the Red Sox closing out the divisional series and the Pats taking a knee to end the game that I go back and watch and relive the moment. For baseball and football, it's particularly easy because they frame the play when it starts. I frame out the shot, hit record, and watch. Not everything's always in the frame, because I'm watching the action on the field, but I get to go back and relive that vividly when I watch it. Wanting to document your happiest moments isn't a new thing. The technology to easily do it is.
Yeah, okay, fine. I'm not saying every single person falls into a single category. But I have little doubt a large number of those folks wanted to garner 150 likes on their facebook page and that's why they did it.
