ABC Twitterer Gets Tweeted
Take one little piece of social media, an ABC journalist (with an opinion), a national, government news corporation (and no it's not North Korea), 24 hours out from an election, what do you get? News.
Where are the clearly delineated lines of independent, unbiased reporting and professional opinion? Is there room for diversity of opinion in news reporting at the ABC?

Twitter 101
There are many secrets to Twitter but the only chance of understanding them is by 'doing'.
Someone can 'point' you in the right direction across the various sites, show you 'how to' and explain the 'lingo', but like anything in life you have to get your hands dirty in order to really understand.

Online can be a great place to be...if you follow a few basic guidelines.
