Twitter is one vehicle changing the face of news today. {Thanks, AP}
Over the course of these last several weeks a lot of attention has been paid to Twitter and how it has changed how the media reports on certain events from the protests and demonstrations following Iran’s disputed presidential election to the death of celebrities such as Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays.

Love_Is_Dope: Absolutely not. Print is obviously dying. You have to be on that new -ish
thembithembi: My answer wasn’t much of a writer’s word, but social media is like the internet itself or the telephone. ppl who don’t will die out
russellnichols: Truth be told, I tried to avoid it for a minute. Still don’t have a FB. Just got on Twitter. Definitely necessary
tlawrites: I think it depends if you are a newbie or an established writer and what audience you are trying to attract (More …)
Your welcome everyone,
My computer worked slowly, too much mistakes and buggs. Help me, please to fix errors on my computer.
My operation system is Windows7.
Thanks,

Back in January New York Magazine did a feature on New York Times’ developers-slash-journalists or journalists-slash-developers (see: http://bit.ly/PN5zN).
