Would Fonzie have tweeted? Probably not. He had that magic finger snap that would bring people to him no matter where they were. Henry Winkler, however, loves Tweeting. On Friday's edition of 'The Talk' (weekdays, syndicated on CBS), Winkler talked about tweet-initiating a group hug and following 'Letterman' writers Eric and Justin Stengel as they made fun of Charlie Sheen at one of Sheen's live shows.

The virtual group hug happened when Winkler was driving to New York at 2:30 in the morning and couldn't sleep. He said it got a great response from all over the world, and he was amazed at the sense of connectedness it fostered. "It was very touching to me," said Winkler.


The Sheen incident was less touching, but an amusing trainwreck that Winkler was happy to read about. Following the Stangel brothers tweeting from the audience at Sheen's Radio City Music Hall show, Winkler said, "You felt like you were there watching the man fall apart." Ah, the marvels of this modern age.
