There are times, like today, for instance, I want to know what’s happening in the seafood & fisheries market.

And I want to know. Right. Now.

The fastest way to find out?

Twitter.

That’s right. Twitter is a journalist’s or blogger’s friend for just this kind of day.

Its up-to-date, reliable news is trustworthy providing you know whom to trust and follow.

Today’s seafood trends were found by simply searching, “#seafood.”

Here’s my seafood re-cap, courtesy of Twitter.

  • Lent. It’s one of the busiest times of the year for seafood consumption. Here’s a little nudge to get you motivated to give something up for Lent. @SeaFoodNews
  • The Gulf Spill trial is delayed until 3/5/12 according to Food Safety News. @hbottlemiller
  • The annual, infamous Boston Seafood Show slated for March 11-13, 2012 & BSS is baiting buyers, clients and manufacture reps with their App specially created for the show. @bostonseafood
  • Love Chilean Sea Bass, but want to do your part for sustainable seafood? Try sablefish as a sub, according to @wildoceanfish.
  • And here’s a little more sustainability to nibble on:
  • Dock to Door is sourcing local seafood and supplying local restaurants in North Carolina, according to @aquaken.
  • And this just in: Bravo’s Top Chef producer’s are looking at two cities. Portland and Boston. A no-brainer if seafood is a priority. @polishpartners
