Government advice urges tweeting

[temi]

New government guidance has been published urging civil servants to use the micro-blogging site Twitter.
Launched on the Cabinet Office website, the 20-page document is calling on departments to "tweet" on "issues of relevance or upcoming events".
The website is already used by Downing Street, the Foreign Office and many individual MPs.
Neil Williams, of the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS), published the "template" strategy.
Writing on the Cabinet Office's digital engagement blog, Mr Williams - who is BIS's head of corporate digital channels - conceded that 20 pages was a "a bit over the top for a tool like Twitter" but added: "I was surprised by just how much there is to say - and quite how worth saying it is."

As usual the sheep that we elected are reacting to trends and fads instead of leading the country like they should be.

Yeah but they are a media company so it's not quite as bad.
