Twittering into the next generation

I really enjoyed the session we all went to as a class. As we sat there I was inspired that if these editors and writers for magazines and newspapers thought twitter was such a great tool and were using it so much, I'd better have one too, and started working on setting up my twitter immediately. It seems like social networking and Twitter especially is giving reporters of all kinds the ability to be much closer to their viewers, to get feedback and get into their lives and give them information that will definitely be useful. I liked to see that with all of the new media in the world it's not all worthless mindrotting entertainment schemes but can really be used to gage what is news and what's going on faster than we have ever been able to before.
