Newspaper passe

Posted by: j pimmel In: digital|innovation|social media

So The Guardian is to begin publishing exclusively to Twitter, which I can only assume will real-time article syndication compared to the existing RSS syndication which heaves 20-30 articles at fixed intervals throughout the day. Given the trouble that the newspaper publishing industries around the globe seem to be having we can safely assume plenty of copycats in the coming months.

UPDATE: Reading the footer “According to unconfirmed rumours, Jim Buckmaster, the chief executive of Craigslist, will next month announce plans for a new system of telepathy-based social networking that is expected to render Twitter obsolete within weeks.”

Or in other words, PWNED -> my wife has so often told me to read things entirely, though my friends have always known me to be gullible! Hahaha (thanks @jadelus)
