最近這一個月，只要有歐洲杯比賽的時段，微博上就會熱鬧非凡。很多人一邊看球，一邊在微博上評球，氣氛一點不比賽場遜色。這種一邊看電視，一邊發微博討論的行為在國外也很普遍，英文叫chatterboxing。

Chatterboxing means watching a program on television, while talking to others about that program online, normally via a social media platform.
Chatterboxing指一邊收看某個電視節目，一般通過社交媒體平臺跟別人討論該節目的行為，在中文語境下，可譯為“看電視發微博”。
Psychologist Corinne Sweet says: "Wanting to communicate with others when you experience emotions such as sadness, entertainment, fear or awe is a part of the human condition. As television often prompts these feelings, it is not surprising that more of us are taking advantage of evolving technology to share our thoughts."
心理學家科林•斯維特說：“人在經歷悲傷、娛樂、恐懼或者驚訝等情緒時，想要跟別人溝通交流是很正常的需求。因為電視通常會引發這些情緒，那么越來越多的人會利用不斷發展的科技手段跟別人分享自己的看法也就不足為奇了。”
