twitter? over the paper?!
um twitter over the news paper? huh i dont think so! first off twitter is not as universal as the newspaper n what i mean by universal is that everything you could find in the paper cannot be found on twitter. the paper prints different articles and passages that are both local and world wide as does twitter, but to see those same things on twitter, you have to be following that person or group thats producing the info to get it. besides although the paper prints things that are opinionated, most of em are facts, whereas twitter consist mainly of peoples 'ideas' and their own opinions...i think the paper would be a better source of info because it had a higher content capacity than twitter which can only host an idea up to 140 characters and then you must submit a new one (status). and to add to the list, the newspaper is a worlwide source for information that both the young and older generations can associate with, eliminating the newspaper leaving things strictly to twitter will exclude the people of the older generations and even some people a little older than me who arent so technologically savvy. i think we should stick to the paper n leave it at that.

Good points, Bree, though this:

- is arguable.
