Many people have been talking and blogging about this. But in the event you haven’t heard, the Web site MediaOnTwitter.com provides a free, comprehensive database of media who are on Twitter.
A team of PR pros developed this database, including Denverite and partner at Digital Idea Media Melissa Hourigan, social media PR maven Sarah Evans, HARO founder Peter Shankman, and TrackVia’s Ed Dunigan, among others.
As Melissa said, “…we were able to create the most comprehensive MediaOnTwitter global database available. There were a few late night work sessions but the opportunity to give the Twitter community something useful was driving the team to get it done.”
The database enables users to locate media by beat, location, name or media outlet on Twitter. And did I mention it’s free?!
I’ve already started using MediaOnTwitter to find and follow journalists, and I’ve discovered the database to be simple and easy to navigate. This is a great resource for PR people and media alike. Thanks to all who developed this database.
