Abstract

So I am on a panel talking about Twitter, while Jemima ‘mistress of multi-skilling’ Kiss is Tweeting to the few enterprising students who are Tweeting while another is broadcasting it on Qik. Then Anthony Thornton from IPCmedia says “Twitter is a not a platform, it’s the medium for short-term communication”. And he’s right.
