Adweek: What's the first information you consume in the morning?

Sam Richardson: I go to Twitter and get a feel for the day. Through that, I'll read The New York Times or CNN depending on what stories are trending.

Are you big on tweeting or do you mostly use Twitter as a news source? 

I try to tweet, but I still haven't gotten into the rhythm as much as some people who have, like, 20,000 tweets.
