I found this article very interesting because I know that since I began actively using Twitter this past summer, the news really has found me rather than me finding the news. I follow CNN on Twitter, as well as other news accounts, and I often check my Twitter feed more often than I check CNN's website or other news sites. Even so, I still feel as though I know much more going on in the world than I did before I became an active Twitter user.

I think that is one of the most interesting things about Twitter. Small stories get easily lost in the noise, but when something major breaks, it is really hard to miss.
Exactly, there have been so many instances this year when I scrolled through my Twitter feed and saw multiple tweets and trending topics about something major happening in the world. In the past, it would have taken days for me to realize what was going on but with Twitter, the news really does find you
