A reason for doing the package.

I don't think I've mentioned what I think is one of the main reasons for me doing my package on this topic. I'm a big fan of all of the shows I've mentioned on this blog so far (Gary: Tank Commander, Limmy's Show and Burnistoun) and I often recommend them to friends, both in person and on websites such as Facebook & Twitter.
If it's in person, it's very likely that friends can watch it on BBC2 Scotland as I very rarely leave Scotland. But when recommending it to people on Twitter, the vast majority of them do not live in Scotland; and therefor, can't access it as easily as everyone else (with the shows only being shown on BBC Scotland.)
They either have to go up to the high numbers in the Sky TV guide, or look for the programme on the iPlayer.

One of the things I love about Twitter, is the combination of it and TV; you can comment on it in realtime with friends, but as (originally) the majority of these shows weren't shown across the UK it was a lot harder to do this.

I don't know if that makes a lot of sense, but it's definitely one of the reasons for me doing this package.
