This is cool, but I'm looking to go the other way – I want to sub to an RSS feed and have it delivered to my Twitter account so I can “follow” a person that doesn't Twitter.

The question of a place to pick up on breaking news is an interesting one, Corvida. I don't think of an RSS reader as a particularly great place to do that, as there's so much volume to dig through. Sure you can set up filters and such but that's not going to set up a very efficient way to pick up a breaking story that could in effect be about almost anything.

I think of news aggregators as a pretty efficient way to pick up on breaking news, as well as places like Twitter, where people you're following are likely to be chatting about hot topics of the day.

I think we can all attest to reading more tweets than blog posts :)

@shegeeks I agree with you, I use twitter along with my RSS reader (google reader) but it has not replaced it. But I must say that I read tweets more now than I do blog post.

I'm @waynesutton on twitter and I follow @shegeeks and @corvida on twitter
