Slate Launches Blog About Twitter

Slate business section The Big Money has launched a new blog, punnily titled “Re: Tweet,” all about Twitter. New York – based Big Money writer Steve Spillman is manning the project.

In an introductory post, Spillman says that the motivation for the blog is to explore the company’s transition from cultural powerhouse to a big business.

The first post takes Adrian Grenier, star of HBO’s “Entourage,” to task for his belief that Twitter can serve as an adequate surrogate publicist.

Adrian Grenier’s tweets, just by virtue of their existence, probably do help his image and exposure, but they’re no replacement for the hard work of being in show business.
