But then I started reading around and it seems that this kind of usage is a faux pas in the Twitter world. I’m of course well aware that numerous companies are using Twitter to broadcast to their fans, and I guess I could start checking them all out, but I thought maybe I’d simply ask all of you. What kind of messages would you like on a Filmmaker Twitter feed? Occasional notices of particularly important blog and article postings? Very frequent musings on breaking indie news?
