A Website

Well, I guess that Twitter is a career related website, isn't it? I study journalism so I think it is and I'm going to tell you why.

Twitter is an online social networking and “micro blogging” service that enables its users to send and read text post of up to 140 characters, knows as “tweets”. Users can tweet via the Twitter website, by SMS or by smart phones. You can “follow” the others accounts and the can “follow” you back. You can also send “Direct Messages” to your friends if you are both following each others.

I visited Twitter every day, like literally every day. It’s the first website I open when I connect to the internet and while I’m in my computer I never close the site.

Anyone can have a twitter account so there are many Medias that have an account and that is exactly the point what I’m talking about when I said that is a “career related website”.

I’m a very organized person so I always list everything (books, clothes, pencils, papers, etc.) and in my twitter account I do exactly the same so I have this “list” call “Información Nacional” (National News) that has more than seventy twitter accounts just related to journalism: Newspapers websites, radio websites, politicians, TV websites, museums websites, online newspapers, etc. So I can always check the news of the day. It’s really, really helpful especially because the twitter accounts are updating information all the time.

I just love that Twitter is so actualized, is very useful for the journalism and as a journalism student I have to be aware of all the things that happens in the world.
