A publishing professional just called (yes, he called me on the telephone) to alert me to a CNN.com article about social networking and to make his argument that, henceforth, Twitter has to be part of every book promotion campaign. “Twitter has become its own newsfeed,” the publishing professional enthused. “That’s how people are getting their news now! Tweets reach people before Associated Press stories do! If you’re not tweeting, you’re not promoting your book!”
Well, maybe. But I’m still not convinced.
