- @journojones Ah, not really! In another life I might have been a headline writer. in reply to journojones #
- Twitter is the New CNN http://bit.ly/aV8mNu /via @lyndons – not a social medium but a means of information dissemination. #
- @feneleyinlondon I agree entirely! I tweeted the article because of its argument that Twitter is an information medium, not a social medium. in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- @feneleyinlondon In fact I'm considering unfollowing every Canberra-based journalist because I feel besieged by the major media outlets! in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- Sounds good… I think… RT @benmoretti: Twitter's a semantic social media message bus! 🙂 #
- @Gibbot5000 My follow policy is simple: interesting information, news or links related to my profile topics = follow. in reply to Gibbot5000 #
- A crudity that was just too much: http://bit.ly/bU0UgH – an interesting and thoughtful piece from Miranda Devine on the Deveny dismissal. #
- RT @feneleyinlondon: but what annoys me abt the gallery journos is they mostly talk among themselves; rarely engage in broader twitter chat #
- Many MPs are the same. The overwhelming majority of MPs/journalists I follow don't follow back and don't respond to tweets @feneleyinlondon #
- Of course, I could just be dreadfully uninteresting…. @feneleyinlondon #
- Quiz question, in keeping with recent tweets. You're only allowed one source of news (eg. 1paper, 1 TV channel, 1 website). What is it? Why? #
- RT @Tim_Beshara: If its just one, then it would be ABC-Kids "Behind the News". It gives news wrap up with context- nothing like it. #
- @GrogsGamut But if you could have only one of those 3, which would it be? in reply to GrogsGamut #
- RT @paulwiggins: NewYork Times packages brainfood and wire services #desertislanddisk #
- RT @linzc: Truth is, Twitter is now my main source. People I like/trust/admire link to the good stories from papers, tv websites etc #
- @linzc That's one way of subverting my hypothetical! in reply to linzc #
- @Gibbot5000 I didn't think this through..! Pretend it's China and we're only allowing one site, not an aggregator. in reply to Gibbot5000 #
- @Colvinius alert!! RT @Captainsuburbia: ABC Local Radio. If you listen to news at 6 then PM, everything that's really important is covered. #
- @feneleyinlondon Hehehe… I should have banned aggregation. Don't you think someone would realise I have shares in the NYT? in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- My answer to my own question is Radio National. If I could have nothing else at all, this would be the only way of getting Aust & int. news. #
- RT @anabalentovic: 'How's it hanging?' is the new greeting at the British parliament #hung #ge2010 #
- @feneleyinlondon Next January, I believe. I'll be willing (if not happy) to pay when it happens. in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- @Gibbot5000 Of course, but I could be happy with RN. Or happy with the ABC as a whole. Can't think of anything else that would do it for me. in reply to Gibbot5000 #
- Yes, an acceptable broad-ranging network. RT @emilybwebb: ABC Newsradio. I am addicted. #
- RT @angelabdc: Compromise leadership proposal. Here in Scotland we'll take Gordon, English take Dave, share custody of Nick 6 months each. #
- @Captainsuburbia Solution: If you've got an iPhone, the ABC app allows you to stream NewsRadio. in reply to Captainsuburbia #
- @feneleyinlondon Unlike the Fin Review who charge print subscribers twice to get access to the website. Finished my lifetime of subscribing. in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- @feneleyinlondon That's fair. The Fin won't even offer an online-only subscription. in reply to feneleyinlondon #
- @feneleyinlondon Wanna share your password with a close friend on Twitter…? in reply to feneleyinlondon #

- @Polyquats She's okay, although I must admit no-one has ever quite done Breakfast as well as Peter Thompson did. in reply to Polyquats #
- @Polyquats True… she does have a touch of the gotcha approach. But all things are relative and there are many much much worse. in reply to Polyquats #
- @Polyquats I like your approach… Sometimes I realise I'm being overly generous! in reply to Polyquats #
