It is the fastest-growing online community in the world and it counts people as diverse as US President Barack Obama, John Cleese and Stephen Fry among its most loyal fans. But to many people, Twitter is merely the sound a cartoon bird makes.
But not for much longer. Following some widespread public exposure, not least on the recent Friday Night with Jonathan Ross show in the UK, Twitter is building an increasingly broad audience who don’t just want news and views; they want INSTANT news and views!
Existing Twitter users among you will be pleased to know that demolitionnews is already using Twitter (www.twitter.com/demolitionnews) and will be using the service to provide rapid fire updates from a number of forthcoming industry events.
Those that haven’t yet enjoyed the Twitter experience can sign up free-of-charge at www.twitter.com. Once you have signed up, you can merely search for other users that you wish to follow (we would strongly recommend twitter.com/stephenfry for entertainment value and www.twitter.com/cnplus and www.twitter.com/contractjournal for wider industry news.
Furthermore, one of our sponsors – Dig A Crusher – has just joined and we’d love to hear about any other demolition or demolition equipment-related users that we should be following.
