Now, I'm gainfully unemployed, but surely employers don't want employees sitting all day on their Crackberries, do they?
Our family had a big discussions about this last weekend!
I wanted to save these tweets, as I find it bizarre how CBC seems to be promoting tweeting, as long as you agree with them. Twitter is a for-profit business, why are they using it willy-nilly?

@jpappone Social media networking isn't news. Well said. It is irritating.

Exactly! If @johnhancockcbc really doesn't feel comfortable with@twitter why peer pressure him 2 it? @RobynBresnahan@StuMillsCBC #bullying

Despite CBC asking for twitter feedback, amazing how one is forbidden from disagreeing! Bugging an on-air host to join Twitter... ow.ly/i/rW9o#1aY1

@jpappone @OttawaMorning Funny how CBC can block when disagree! twitter_discourse ow.ly/i/rW9o #opinion #feedback #beenbullied @work
I'm confused, @jennifersalahub & @ottaross criticize@RobynBresnahan on @OttawaMorning but don't get blocked? Why me @CBCOmbudsman?

Missed 1st 1/2, but 2nd 1/2 =patriarchal, fear-mongering infomercial masquerading as human interest story. @RobynBresnahan@cbcottawamorning

@jennjilks too much poor judgement. Self-focus and unwillingness to ask the tough questions often pops up as a prob it seems.

@ottaross Yes, @OttawaMorning is turning into bad AM radio, not targeted to middle-aged, despite being large part of aud., trite interviews

@ottaross I was offended with talk of tampons, farting during the Valentines-gone-wrong show. Since I missed it, what is MMA?

I want the CBC to demand Don Cherry and Ron MacLean start tweeting, and hear what Cherry says to that. "You want me to sit in a tree twittering like some blankety-bank little girl bird?"
How can the CBC demand journalists to demean themselves?

I do find that our local daily does use twitter in a practical way. last night they had an accident report which was ahead of paper delivery by 12 hours.
I have turned a deaf ear to the reporters "tweets"...find them annoying! I tried Twitter...found it not something I wanted to spend my time doing...
It's true, Red. It is perfect for breaking news, but I get that emailed to my mailbox!
I love it, Kay, you're a hoot! :-)
Linda, even my adult, geek children find the same. How can there be discourse in 140 characters?
Many of us cannot read the comments sections in many newspapers on-line. Such trite, rudeness.
