OBVIOUS USES OF TWITTER FOR TRADITIONAL JOURNALISM:

1: BEAT REPORTING (USE CONTENT SEARCH, GEOLOCATED)

3: REALTIME CONTENT (PHOTOS/AUDIO/VIDEO, 1-LINE DESCRIPTION)

4: TRACEABLE SOURCES / INTERVIEWEES / LEADS (@PUNTER)

5: “CAN YOU HELP?” (#QUESTION AT AM, #ANSWERS AT PM)

6: PROMO TOOL FOR TITLES/INDIVIDUAL JOURNALISTS/PIECES

2: EARLY WARNING (COMMUNITIES DECIDING WHAT’S NEWS)

BUT IF YOU’RE NOT PLAYING AT IT…

7: EXPERTISE ARCHIVE (FOLKSONOMY OF KNOWLEDGE, ON THE MOVE)

@THEPLAYETHICTOUGH QUESTIONS ABOUT TWITTER/ SOCIALMEDIA AND NEWS…

WHO VERIFIES THESE FLOWS OF INFORMATION? THE NEWSORGANISATION - OR THE ‘TRUTH COMMUNITY’? WHAT’S THE VALUE INCLAIMING AUTHORITY?

CAN WE BREAK OUT OF “140” AS A DESIGN/CONTENT LIMITATION FORREAL-TIME MEDIA? MESO-BLOGGING AS WELL AS MICRO-BLOGGING?

HOW “COLLABORATIVE” AND “DISTRIBUTED” ARE JOURNALISTSPREPARED TO BE ABOUT THEIR WORK PROCESS? (SEE WSJ’sLIMITATIONS ON SOCIAL NETWORK UPDATING)

#THEPLAYETHIC@THEPLAYETHICTWITTER AND THE GENERAL CRISIS OF THENEWS BUSINESS?

IN ROCK’N’ROLL 2.0 THEY SAY “USE WHAT ISUBIQUITOUS TO DRIVE PEOPLE TO WHAT IS SCARCE”

TWITTER/SOCIAL MEDIA MAKES NEWS UBIQUITOUS. BUTWHAT IS SCARCE IN JOURNALISM & CAN BEVALUED/MONETISED? NOT PAYWALLS…BUT AUTHORITY?
