Conference Tweeting

All political eyes are on the Tory conference right now, it's a showcase for the next government and we're watching and judging. The BBC have shown themselves to lead the way when it comes to new mediums and technology, by getting on board early with the internet and digital television they've benefited greatly by the change in our media consumption habits and probably even influenced them. iplayer is another success story that is being replicated worldwide. So it's not entirely shocking to stumble across a BBC reporter twittering live from the Tory conference, it doesn't get more current and relevant than that. Bitesize news chunks work well, after all aren't twitter pages just a list of news headlines anyway?
