Scotland’s Roman Wall – Tweet

When I started writing about the Roman civilisation in the summer of 1996 content was still new on the web. Wikipedia didn't exist and we still relied on books and encyclopedias. We still had to visit ruins and more. Today the web has matured to such an extent that you can find tweets about the Roman civilisation every day. This means that history is not updated when books or newspaper articles come out. It is updated on a weekly, or even hourly basis. The beauty of tweets, as opposed to blog posts or articles, is that you can share snippets of information, as you get them.
