Roseanne Barr: Zimmerman parents lawsuit not valid

Actress Roseanne Barr acknowledges making a Twitter post listing the address and telephone number of George Zimmerman's parents, but is asking a judge to throw out their lawsuit against her in part because the information was readily available in public records.

George Zimmerman's parents have filed a lawsuit against comedian Roseanne Barr, claiming she attempted to cause a riot outside their home by posting their residential address on Twitter.

George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch volunteer who was acquitted of murder for fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, said in an interview released Wednesday that he's trying to be a good person and he thinks he can help others after what he has gone through.

George Zimmerman's parents are suing actress Roseanne Barr in Florida, claiming a Twitter post she made listing their address and telephone number forced them to flee their home.

George Zimmerman spent Saturday signing autographs and snapping photos with customers and fans at the New Orlando Gun Show.

George Zimmerman and his attorneys are dropping efforts to get prosecutors to pay for evidence they say was withheld before his trial for killing Trayon Martin.

Florida's gun-friendly nature will be scrutinized during the 2014 legislative session as bills that would modify the state's "stand your ground" law and another allowing warning shots will be considered, a marked contrast from the 2013 session in which no major gun legislation was passed.

Two years and a day after their son's death, the parents of Trayvon Martin visited the White House on Thursday and were in the audience as President Obama announced a new initiative designed to keep young minority men on the right path.

Once all the dust from his legal battles settles, George Zimmerman said he'd like to pursue a degree in law become a lawyer.

The parents of George Zimmerman have sued comedienne Roseanne Barr for tweeting their address, an act that caused them to flee from their home two years ago and never return, a legal representative said Wednesday.

Zimmerman was the center of a media storm in 2012 when he shot and killed black teenager Trayvon Martin. Many progressives in Hollywood, including Barr, rejected Zimmerman's claim of self defense and presumed the shooting was racially motivated.

Zimmerman was eventually tried and acquitted on charges of manslaughter and second-degree murder, but while an investigation ensued and before Zimmerman was in custody, Barr tweeted his address to 110,000 followers, however it was, in fact, the address of his parents, Robert and Gladys Zimmerman. George Zimmerman hadn't lived there in six years, according to a complaint dated Monday.

Director Spike Lee also attempted to tweet Zimmerman's address but he also got it wrong and was sued by David and Elaine McClain, who lived at the address mistakenly tweeted. Lee paid the couple $10,000 in a settlement agreement.

As for Zimmerman's parents, they are seeking at least $15,000 from Barr because they were forced to flee their home "in the middle of the night" after the press descended on their house shortly after Barr's tweet, they say.

After her initial tweet, Barr later tweeted: "If Zimmerman isn't arrested Ill rt his address again - maybe go 2 his house myself."

The couple is represented byDavid Heil, a personal injury attorney in Orlando, Fla.

The complaint says that Barr violated the Twitter terms that she had previously agreed to. Twitter's policy states that users "may not publish or post other people's private and confidential information," including street addresses.

The world of social networking is breaking up. Thanks to a combination of increasing mobility and shifting preferences, people are connecting with each other through "small" apps rather than directly through large social sites at a growing rate.

Social network fragmentation and the rise of small apps has big implications for business, particularly for midsize firms. The mobile space may never be favorable for direct advertising, but well-crafted small social apps can provide firms with a wealth of information about their customers insights that can often be shared with business partners. All of this makes mobile apps an even greater growth area for the midsize IT community.

Social Networking On the Go

As Mike Elgan reports at InfoWorld, mobility has been a primary force in transforming the social media landscape by driving social network fragmentation. In a nutshell, users are increasingly connecting with each other using their mobile devices.

This has posed major challenges to social network giants such as Facebook and Twitter, as mobile ad revenue has not taken off as a revenue source. Moreover, mobile users, surrounded by distractions, favor "small" apps that do a single job easily and well; Snapchat, Instagram and WhatsApp are typical examples.

This does not mean that big social sites are an endangered species. Instead, they are buying up apps and transforming themselves into connection points in the social media ecosystem.

Mobility: Connecting Amid Distractions

The changes in social media can be directly attributed to mobility. Most mobile users are on smartphones, which have little screen space to spare for ads. Mobile users out on the sidewalk have little attention to spare for ads or complex interfaces hence the trend toward small apps.

Though mobile devices and the apps that run on them are a poor platform for ads, they are an excellent platform for gaining customer insight. Localization data adds a whole new layer of understanding about customer behavior and preferences. This data, which most mobile users provide readily and eagerly, can be fed into analytics solutions to draw out insights. Customer data can also provide a revenue stream since it is of potential value to many businesses.

In the app-centric mobility era, mobile apps are a crucial and valuable social business tool for midsize firms seeking to connect with their customers. As traditional IT functions are increasingly shifted to the cloud, midsize IT can focus its attention on the creative process of developing apps that reach out and connect the firm to its mobile customers, even as it connects them with each other.
