It gets irritating when talking heads pretend to know what we're doing and thinking at social networks without taking the time to pay attention. Not one mention of the de facto public utility Twitter grew to be reliable for:
Major world disasters, wars, incidents, sports events, cultural matters, politics and even command, control and communication for Arab Springs. We came to Twitter for video and eyewitness accounts even our corrupted news media don't have.
since we are everyone and everything: From experienced in every profession and field to long time residents who know the most about local cultures and stories, to fact checkers who can clear up a fake claim or photo within minutes.
Twitter allowed that in a fast moving, searchable, curatable feed with Trending news items and links to a wide variety of reputable and not so reliable news sources: IE MULTIPLE news sources.
So tell it like it IS, not like you decided it is.
We'd appreciate it.
