I just now was watching a seesmic vidio of a US soldier in Iraq. He was totally at a loss as to who was watching him. Witness it here± http://www.seesmic.com/Standalone.html?video=aex3LYRvdn In my opinion, the best thing is to market this thing aggressively to the established media. BBC3 apparently is interested in it and the reason is more than obvious. Reporting using twitter itself is slow to take hold in the established media but this tool might make a difference. Up til today social media are mostly being incorporated into the media through journalists´ use of personal tools. There´s nothing wrong witha bit of evangelism but ultimately journalists find themselves as much at a loss within their own corporations when incorporating social media in their work as that US soldier did. The media simply have to get their act together to facilitate people with the platforms they´re obviously still looking for! Cool story.
