Ofcom starts twittering

By scott

Russ at Ofcomwatch has alerted me to the fact that our communication regulator, Ofcom, has joined Twitter: no, really they have - here’s their page, and here is a page on the Ofcom site about Twitter. The first three posts are links to Ofcom press releases, site updates - but done with an attempt to make them sound a bit more interesting. It is too early yet to know if Ofcom (or their twitterer(s)) will actually engage in any two way conversations via Twitter, or if this is merely another way to get their content ‘out there.’ As such, I will reserve judgement on the move until a later date. I notice they are not following any PMs yet.

I will say that it does, once again, demonstrate just how much Twitter is becoming mainstream and THE ‘in thing’ for 2009 - in the same way Facebook was the in thing in 2008.
