Birmingham Post to launch Twitter news feed

April 17th, 2008 Posted by Laura Oliver in Newspapers

The Birmingham Post is to use microblogging service Twitter to push out the news feed from its website.

How did editor Marc Reeves announce the development? By Twitter of course.

Earlier this week the Plymouth Herald began using the service to deliver customised messages to its readers.

UPDATE - The Post’s Twitter feed is now up and running, and will welcome feedback and comments from other Twitterers.
