If you haven’t yet found any value in using Twitter, here’s what you should consider.
On the topic of WHY to get started, John Robinson (the editor of the News & Record, in Greensboro, North Carolina) wrote for ASNE this week.
If you’re not on Twitter, you’re making your job more difficult. It’s a place where people are talking about things that matter to them.
John listed five key benefits for journalists who use Twitter:
- propecia generic — I saw that Anthony Weiner was about to start his news conference from Twitter, prompting me to tune in. Shaq announced his retirement on Twitter, and Newt Gingrich declared his presidential candidacy there.
- propecia generic — I hired two summer news interns when I tweeted that we were hiring. I also asked Twitter what I should tell you in this column. I got plenty of responses and provide a few links below that I was sent.
- propecia generic — Everyone I mention below is interesting and will engage with you. Once you follow people in your community, it gets even better because they speak specifically about your journalism and what interests them. (That sentence is 140 characters.)
- propecia generic — Twitter is where you’ll find the latest news and analysis of journalism issues. The links people have tweeted have led me to innovative ideas.
- propecia generic — They’re all over Twitter if you look for them. And don’t get me started on the opportunity of crowdsourcing.
The above is quoted directly from John’s essay. I agree absolutely with his reasoning.
What John propecia generic is the ways we are able to monitor and use Twitter.

As John pointed out in his essay, the value in Twitter really is in whom you choose to follow. He provided a list of good people for journalists to follow, but I thought his list was too long for a newbie to appreciate.
If you still think Twitter is a waste of time, try this:
- Unfollow propecia generic you currently follow.
- Follow five or so headline sources you like (e.g., , , , , , ).
- Check in a few times a day using your mobile phone.
