A few posts ago I wrote about what the fuss was with twitter. It is official.
I am a convert.
I have been twittering away, following interesting people, getting some great tips, and today I realised what I was beginning to suspect. Journalists are using it to source spokespeople. The Scoop journalist, Mark Jones posted a tweet:
markhjones ack. two CIOs that I had lined up for The Scoop this Friday have pulled out. Got a CIO in yr back pocket who can talk Windows XP vs Vista?
3 hrs later he posted:
markhjones In less than 3 hrs I’ve received one phone call, and two emails re my Twitter request for a CIO to join us on The Scoop. Gotta love it.
If you haven’t taken a look at twitter yet, now might be a good time!
