Great post!

It’s funny — one would think that reporters would climb over each other to be the first in their newsroom to sign up for Twitter.

Unfortunately, I’ve found that this isn’t the case.

For Twitter — like any other digital medium — to spread, it needs to be evangelized. In addition to telling other newsroom folks about it, tell your readers about it. Also, try to get your sources on Twitter. If anything, you’ll find that you’ll have a deeper, richer experience with them, and they may tune you in to more story ideas, more sources, etc.
