Chris S. Cornell at WVOX 1460AM in New Rochelle
Greenburgh Town Supervisor Paul Feiner introduced his WVOX radio audience to the free microblogging service Twitter this morning on his weekly show. I was one of four guests on an hour-long show devoted to computer-related topics, and much of the conversation centered on Twitter, and its growing use in Westchester County.
Feiner was one of 31 individuals and organizations highlighted by a “Best Westchester Twitter List” published by TwitterProfessor last Friday. Feiner has become one of the county’s better known and well-liked politicians partly because he’s a great listener. He drives around the county in a car that prominently lists his phone number. He’s on Twitter and Facebook, and he does a great job of updating his blog. He admitted that Twitter can be overwhelming at times, and said that he uses Facebook more than Twitter. Nonetheless, he opened up his radio show to this relatively new social media tool, and should be applauded for doing so.
