Is Twitter the primary means of communication of the future?

Leo in blog of journalist Carlos Salas Diaries of Captain Snorkel "a post last week entitled" What if in the future we read through of Twitter? "which asks whether the network is not the media future. A priori, for those unfamiliar with Twitter or not to give a more or less professional, this statement may be somewhat exaggerated. However, for those who do that are hooked to 140 characters and among our "followers" and "following" a vast majority of accounts linked to the world of communication, whether journalists -crowd in this network -, and means, this statement is we are not at all out of place.

Ensures Carlos Salas on his blog that "adapts to Twitter journalistic message like a glove . Why? Because people get on Twitter to stay a day or hour, or minute, because you choose the news source (a guru, a friend, a newspaper ...) and because short messages allow you to read many shortly. Good news or information titled Hot Deals are ideal for this medium of short message. "

acknowledge that it might agree almost word for word the above. But it's also a network of this type, in which messages amount to the holder of a news and accompanied in most cases a link to the information you mentioned, are a major source of inputs to digital media. In fact, according to a study conducted by CNN, up to 43% of stories that are "distributed" across the network are through social networks, compared to 30% by email or on 15 % via SMS. But also, the key is to provide readers with "influential", ie those most active in using these tools: 27% of them, those that bounce at least six links per week-are responsible for 85 % of information that move through Internet. So having them in our community, we guarantee a success.

And, any publisher who does not have capacity for its news to be distributed in social networks has secured a significant deficit for visits, according to the latest data in this sense, Facebook now virtually reached as Google News news aggregator for news sites, which will soon also with Twitter, since its progression in the number of users grows each year, especially among English-speaking countries.

Does it pass then the future of digital media and its impact on social networks? Absolutely, yes . No information yet as regards the English media, and just talking from my experience, I am sure that the number of Internet users coming online any means through Twitter or Facebook is growing every day and is already a significant percentage of total visits.

Even knowing that these applications are temporary and I do not know how long this social network than I have no doubt it is this or a similar one reporters have to get used to the holder in 140 characters -less if we take into account the need to include the link-and i s are not able to do so in an interesting and attractive to the reader, your news will be very little read , even though the information is the bomb. And this same rule applies to blogs and any support that you want to capture the attention of Internet users. And if not, at the time.
