Hi everyone!
Now that you all have signed up for Twitter and know how to use it, here are some unique "Twitterers" we would like to share with you:
@statesman - The Statesman does a GREAT job in communicating with its followers. They even provide links to other news organizations, which is quite unusual!
@cnnbrk - This is CNN's Twitter account for breaking news and the latest updates on major stories.
@utknightcenter - This is the account for UT's Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas, a blog that monitors daily journalism news in the Americas. This account works pretty much as a news feed: the posts that are published on the blog go automatically to the Knight Center's Twitter account. (Also available in Spanish and Portuguese.)
@APStylebook - The official Twitter account for the AP Stylebook, where you can ask questions [it's not guaranteed that they're going to be answered, though] and read tips. Very useful. This account has over 17,000 followers!
And, as an example of someone who uses hashtags (#) and RTs (Retweets) effectively, check out @GinaMChen, a veteran journalist who is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Communications at Syracuse University.
Finally, a reminder: you can subscribe to each of these users' Twitter feed by clicking on the orange RSS icon on their profile page! (bottom right side)
