Twitter Seeks To Connect Media Companies with Developers
Twitter has become a media platform unto itself. People looking for breaking news are just as likely to see it first through their Twitter feed as they are through a mainstream news outlet.
In fact, media companies have been aggressively figuring out how to best utilize Twitter in their day-to-day practices. The Huffington Post has created “Twitter Editions” of its pages, while CNN and ABC News regularly feature tweets on-air.
Likewise, hundreds of websites have widgets that provide a stream of relevant tweets to readers, and television networks like E! and MTV have run tweets from viewers on crawls below their programming.
