No one has looked at news from new atomic units of content, like a tweet on Twitter.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reason I don't tweet as much as I used to, is because I'm sick of all the useless opinions and hate that I get daily. Goodbye Twitter.
There's an entire universe in every single tweet, and it all really depends on the content as far as how it's going to spread.
Twitter has always been that refreshing place where I can quickly find out what is going on in my tech world. I follow mostly entrepreneurs and VCs - some who I know and some who I don't know. I have a few companies in my feed. But no newspapers, no magazines, and no mainstream media.
Every news organization needs a social media strategy.
One thing we seem to be missing is that just as we no longer search for the news, the news finds us today (e.g. this article found me) we will no longer search for products and services, rather we will look to our social graph to what products and services they like and don't like.
With the evolution of social media that includes blogging, Facebook, and Twitter, who and how information is delivered has changed tremendously. The landscape for news is a different place, and people have to accept that.
In general, I think very few people have a sustained interest in news.
I think it's weird that the news cedes so much ground to Wikipedia. That isn't true in other informational sectors.
I don't read Twitter.
There's no new news.
