Writing Quote of the Week

Journalism is merely history's first draft.
Geoffrey C. Ward

Joining Twitter

Twitter was something I resisted for a while. I thought, I really have nothing to say and who will follow me anyway, right? Wrong. If you think Twitter will go away, it won't. Attending the Society of Professional Journalists Conference in Cleveland, OH this month opened my mind to opening a Twitter account.
There is a new generation of journalists who know social media and embrace the idea of letting others know what is going on with this world network. In the New York Times this week, newspaper circulations have declined, yet again. Local newspapers and TV stations are also catching on and using different methods to inform readers on the internet from Facebook to Twitter.

If you are not on Twitter yet, now is the time to act. It will be valuable to your journalism career.
