As part of our discussion after the briefing we all agreed that we would go away and ask people what, how and why they read.
-Tumblr and bbc news online
-Tumblr is sought out and BBC new updates appear on phone. Once you start reading them you tend to continue.
- The major reason for most reading was to keep up to date not only with the news but with the design world and search for inspiration.
- Twitter and I always have one fictional book on the go to read whenever I have a spare moment. I have many favourite authors.
- I buy books physically but also have the kindle application for when I am feeling impatient. Twitter is only something I access online, I would not want it to distract me on my phone.
- Reading is majorly for enjoyment and entertainment for me, I use it to give me inspiration online and indirectly from the books I read.
-'Twitter is pretty much the only thing I read on'
-'Both on my phone and via the computer, any way that can keep me connected.'
-'Twitter is used mainly for social reasons for me. It keeps me in the loop and in touch with old friends'
What seems most prevalent is this need to update constantly, this awareness of what is going on around us at that very moment. This seems to create some urgency and is possibly something to research and puts twitter on the top of our list to consider as a platform for our viral content.
