This makes me wonder. Is it the same folks?
Also, I have a feeling this will come with a price. You?
BreakingNews really brought some fun into the news and I believe it gave us folks on twitter a chance to be in the know first.
I’ll give it a compare after it’s been running a while.
Cheers,
Todd

Hey Todd, this is the same folks that did the breakingnews twitter feed, which I loved…they came out with an iphone app a while back, but that is not free.

Now they are attempting to start a wire service, like the AP, and I am assuming the twitter feed, as we knew it, will cease to exist.
