Twitter can be used as a news service. However because this is done as a second thought it is not well organized as there is no systematic way to enter news so that it can be easily found and separated from the noise.

Because of this there is no easy and fast way to search for this information.



We have built have integrated a news posting service into our micro blog “Conversations” This ability to post news to the microblog is also integrated into our feed reader and both services post to twitter.

We you search on adelph.us for a news story you will receive results that are from both main stream media as well as from related micro blogs.

I didn't see a mention of @shloky's many #mumbai tweets or his Naxalite Rage blog, which has six or so posts of analysis at http://naxaliterage.com/
