Are you unable to make it to E3 2008? Find yourself refreshing your favorite game news sites hoping to get the latest tidbits on the games you are looking forward to? Try using Twitter to follow the latest coverage.

One of the neatest things to pop up in the Twitter community is the use of hashtags to create a tagging system for Twitter. Hashtags are subjects with a hash symbol (#) in front of the subject. They are used to tell what the tweet is about.

You can use the hash tags with the Twitter search feature to find what people are talking about on a subject. For example, you can search for "#e3 #ps3" to find the tweets about PS3 news at E3.

Here's a few neat Twitter searches to try:

• E3 coverage
• Microsoft E3 coverage
• Nintendo E3 coverage
• Sony E3 coverage

The Gamer 2.0 Twitter profile is also doing a great job of covering the event. Check out their tweets at http://twitter.com/gamer20.
