how to adapt the practice and business of journalism to the Web

Hey, California, next time there are wildfires, make instant news across all of your micro blog sites like tumblr. with one site, HelloTxt.com

Written by amedeo on November 21st, 2007

If a disaster strikes in your city, why not go beyond Twittering like KPBS and add 8 other micro blogging services to your network of news-nugget displays? Because it takes too long to update that many sites?

Nein, non y no! Not with HelloTxt.com.

Here are the supported micro blog services:

  1. tumblr.
  2. twitter
  3. jaiku
  4. Pownce
  5. Meemi (Italian)
  6. frazr (French, German)
  7. beemood
  8. yappd
  9. gozub (Spanish)

Once again, thanks to Emily Chang’s eHub.

    I fully believe that the microblog idea will take off. Like SMS overtaking talking, email and post etc. The microblog allows a quick conversation, smaller network of friends and the opportunity just to check out off hat.
