Wanted, Minister of Culture to claim Twitter

Pre-packaged account waiting for Andy Burnham

After all the hullabaloo about regulating all the content on the internet at the weekend, Culture Secretary Andy Burnham has been on the radar of many a UK Tech writer, none more so than Mike Butcher at Tech Crunch.

So he’s registered the Twiiter account of Andy Burnham, with a view to seeding the account by having it follow a solid representation of the UK Technology Scene.

As such, I will be using the account to follow some of the Web’s leading commentators in the UK, so that when he does want it back, it will be pre-packaged with people who can direct mesage him a few salient thoughts about the Web, at least before he makes policy on the hoof.

Butcher is accepting suggestions on what to do with the account, and we’ll be happy to pass on the thoughts of The Daily Dust readers. I wonder if the rest of the Twittering MP’s will let Burnham know what’s happening?
