Follow Gordon Brown on Twitter for real-time news. Er. Hours later…

February 4th, 2008

I was impressed to see Prime Minister Gordon Brown is on Twitter, albeit unofficially hooked up via the 10 Downing Street Web Site RSS feeds. So I added Gordon to those whose tweet nothings I listen in to, so that I can find out what they are up to in real time…

However, it looks like’s Gordon’s idea of real time is a little behind mine. At 15:24, I got notice of his morning press briefing, as shown below. Hey Gordon, it’s the afternoon!

It appears that morning press briefings are only made public in the afternoon. It does take some time to write these things up, I suppose. And then one must have lunch, then check them again, of course…

Actually, I’ll get back to you on this story later…
