Twitter can now be mastered on your terms.

What else has changed is the type of content RSS readers syndicate – a jump from sites and blogs to newsletters, Google Alerts, podcasts and social media platforms in all forms. Using any RSS reader, you’ll discover multiple functions to add curation to your subscriptions and even have social sharing capabilities. RSS has outgrown its initial function as merely a tool to manage one’s online reading. This situation mirrors closely what professionals experience trying to follow too many news sites, blogs and magazines, and the solution to both has been RSS. Add in algorithms, non-chronological feeds and predominance of most-shared content, and users may very well truly miss out on what interests them. Beef up those lists or create too many, and you’re out in the wilderness without much of an anchor. Lists buffer the strain to keep up only so much. Yet, for all its promises of always being connected and be well informed, Twitter has a tendency to overwhelm even the most organised user. Politicians, academics, activists, influencers, scientists and specialists all maintain a presence.

Even on smaller scales pertaining to relevant industry news, Twitter has no rival in delivering news and commentary.īefore journalists even get to publish their material – always shared on Twitter first – they have an opportunity to discuss, start threads and source data, statistics and opinions, upon which they then write their articles and think pieces. Revolutions, scandals, major policy changes, natural disasters and scientific discoveries unravel on Twitter in real time with an audience ready to sound off, add context and build on top of the information that is disseminated.

Twitter – for better or for worse – has risen as the fastest way to track breaking events.
