- Michael Kinsley – Life After Newspapers – washingtonpost.com
"Few industries in this country have been as coddled as newspapers. [...] It is tempting, but too easy, to say the problems of newspapers are their own fault. True enough, the industry missed a whole armada of boats. If newspapers had been smarter, or moved faster, they might have kept the classified ads. They might have invented social networking. But that's all hindsight. I didn't think of these things, nor did you." (newspapers journalism media business )
- Baker Tweet
From the boys and Girls at Poke, who take the "creative" bit of "creative agency" very seriously: "BakerTweet is a way for busy bakers to tell the world that something hot and fresh has just come out of the oven. It's as simple as turning the dial and hitting the button. [...] In simple terms it's a bakery-proof box that sends messages wirelessly to Twitter. The clever bit is that the baker can update their messages and things they're selling using a simple web interface. Obviously not something that you'd do mid-bake but it's an important feature for future-proofing the device." (twitter technology arduino hardware )
- Twitian
Paul Carvill's very lovely Guardian Twitter site: "A collection of people I work with who are using Twitter [...] I created a Twitter user, @guardianfan, and followed everyone I know at the Guardian — where I work — who is using Twitter, either in a personal or professional capacity."

- Love the Fear: Twitter is the new messaging bus – very cool
"In a recent blog post I said that I thought that Twitter was the new TCP/IP. [...] To back this up, I've spent a few hours knocking up an example. I've built a new bot service which uses Twitter for its inputs and outputs. GSearch lets you use Twitter to search the Guardian newspaper's archive.[...]" (guardian search twitter open_platform )
