Rupert Murdoch joins Twitter

As mind of News Corporation, Rupert Murdoch is among the most effective media personas in the world, and it has finally became a member of what some call the "new journalism": Twitter.

The 80-year-old media magnate who "never learned to email" became a member of the social networking service on New Years Eve and it has since published 17 tweets, most abundant in recent congratulating New You are able to mayor (and competitor) Michael Bloomberg.

Joining Twitter might be seen as an New Years resolution by Murdoch, who also tweeted that his resolutions would "attempt to maintain humbleness and try to curiosity. Not to mention diet!"

Not surprisingly, most missives appear to become News Corporation-related to a tweet each for Fox pictures "The Descendants" and also the-plot-is-in-the-title "We Purchased a Zoo".

Like a fellow Australian, though, I'm personally disappointed by the possible lack of references to gallahs and/or old oaths ("crikey","strewth!") .
