@andyoakes indeed. It's another way of saying 'like this technology, we probably won't last.'

But in defence of Sky + BBC - unless you employ x,000s of journalists, it's hard to really understand the challenge they face.

With all this stuff about Sky and BBC and tweeting and policies and yadayada... how about the the Paton approach: http://t.co/VxzK4Sl9

@AaronLavery As Dr Nick puts it in the Simpsons, probably in a similar accent: "The most rewarding part is when they gave me my money."

@JPickover Must be something behind the scenes - giving an interview and having a strong opinion is not grounds for summary dismissal

@gsandhu good point - making SEO into an art form. They are long, bright and readable articles when you get there too w/ loads of pics

@chrishams none of my business, but I'm not sure how practical that is. Good to have a policy in a huge news org though, 4 sure

@chrishams on your soc media guidelines, does that mean reporters shouldn't tweet something before it's been on air / online ?
