ManOnTheMoon Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Ya I agree the news just pours in quicker than any other news outlet. But I will say sometimes it's like Wiki lol use it as a stepping stone and go find a reliable source for more info haha. I remember during Christmas so many false reports of death on Twitter Is the only way to get the latest news by following certain reporters, or companies like *ESPN. Also what are the tweets that have like "#inserttext" << Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

htown11 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Is the only way to get the latest news by following certain reporters, or companies like *ESPN. Also what are the tweets that have like "#inserttext" << No you will see big news immediately when you look at "trending topics" you can click on the particular topic you are interested in and you will see what the news is about. On slow news days it's pretty pointless lol I mean if a new CD is coming out that will usually trend things like that. But for example the Giffords shooting trended super fast on Twitter, granted the details were blurry but still news breaks on Twitter. Lkr already answered your second question perfectly. Those hashtags basically initiate the trending topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
