Today marked the last day of the Olympics. A big congrats to everyone who participated. You’re all pretty amazing. Thanks for sharing your remarkable experiences via social media. It was greatly appreciated. Today’s hockey match for gold seemed to be the only thing Olympians and celebs were tweeting about this morning. Then, tweets seemed to be all about the closing ceremonies. It just doesn’t seem fair that we have to wait so long for another Winter Olympics. It’s really quite unbearable. Aside from the Olympics, Twitter was full of gems. We were reminded that the Oscars are nearing, Sundays are a day of relaxation, and we all want a bit of love in our life. Rosie O’Donnell’s family lost their dog, but thankfully it was returned. So happy for the safe return of their pup. Most importantly, Hank Azaria reminded us what life is all about: making a better tomorrow for everyone, especially the kiddos. Enjoy.
The last day of the Olympics provided some interesting and inspiring tweets…
Some Olympians watched the Gold Medal hockey match and closing ceremonies at Grand Central Station.

The "Favorite" button is kind of like the "That's What's Up" button for me

In total agreement with William Shatner.
While I love watching the competitions; I am also blown away by the way social media has been used during the games.

Onto a few non-Olympic celeb tweets from the day…
Hank Azaria absolutely has the right idea.
I cannot ski, but my son can. That's what we want, isn't it, a better life for our children? pic.twitter.com/Lb1SiOg8Gw
