There was a time when Passover meant putting down our iPhones and celebrating our ancient Jewish heritage over Bubbie’s classic matzah balls.
But it’s 2014, and technology has started making a comeback at the Seder table. JDate made dating profiles for Moses and the Pharaoh. The famed Bronfman Haggadah debuted in app form. So it shouldn’t come as much of a shock that hordes of Twitterers are using #SederUpdates to live-tweet their Passover dinners.
It takes a Wicked Son to live-tweet the Seder. It takes a Simple Son to get caught doing it. #SederUpdates

Thank heavens our people escaped from Egypt so we could one day send out tweets like these.
Matzah makes us gassy, too:

The Jewish people’s enslavement in Egypt was nothing compared to this guy’s problems:

Cute:
I'm nearly twenty. It's not okay that I still jump with excitement when I get to open the door for Elijah at Seder. #SederUpdates #Pesach

A classic Passover mishap:
The cons of having a grandma with dementia – no one, including her, knows where she put the afi-komen, or if there is one. #sederupdates

Sounds pretty much like our Seder last night:
Everyone's drunk already #SederUpdates
