David Saranga was kind enough to answer Municipalist's questions back in January 2009 about the world's first Twitter press conference held by a government office, in this case Israel's New York Consulate.
"Since we entered Twitter, I think the definition of public diplomacy has changed," Saranga says in this video.
Saranga told Municipalist: "Our Twitter account has been an effective tool for communicating and dialoguing directly with people all over the world. Some of these people may never have had access to Israel’s messages, which we could share with them through Twitter, and now they have the ability to speak directly with the Israeli government."
