Great job Dave Berlind wrote up a pretty interesting piece about how Twitter fits into the media ecosystem called Get ready for the ‘Twitterization’ of mainstream media, and there were some insightful comments that inspired me to leave a comment, which is listed down below. Berlind documents his track record of being a pretty good detector of the latest trends in the article, and I think he's right about where twitter may fit in -- in additional to other uses that he didn't think of -- as well as others that no one else has thought of either.

Here are my five thoughts that came up while reading this piece:

Just got an e-mail from Jay Rosen about helping out with some video editing for the '08 Iowa coverage for Off-the-Bus. He's got a pretty sweet connection with the HuffingtonPost, which could be some great exposure. And an opportunity for me to be more directly involved in the '08 elections. Time is the only consideration, and so I brainstormed a number of ideas that would make the process more collaborative, and make my life a lot easier.
