Twitter Use Number 102
As a follow up to my post Twitter Use Number 101. Which was a post about a friend of mine that covered the birth of his child via twitter. I have yet another interesting use for twitter, trial coverage / real time reporting. A reporter at the Ball State Daily News cover a murder trial via Twitter. You can see Twitter embedded on the schools newspaper site.
Nice to see reporters adapting live blogging in an interesting way.
