MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR: The Value of Twitter

I was critical of the social networking site Twitter for a long time—how could anyone get all the information they need in just 140 characters or less? But then I signed up for an account—and now I’m addicted. It’s a fast and easy way to get news and updates from your favorite people or organizations you support. The American Humanist Association is very active on Twitter, where we post news and activities that aren’t often included on our Facebook page or even Humanist Network News.

So if you don’t have a Twitter account yet, consider signing up right now and be sure to follow the American Humanist Association (@americnhumanist), our many programs (@LGBTHumanists, @HumanistLegal, @HumanistInst), and AHA leaders (@rspeckhardt, @ahadave, @MaggieArdiente, @BrianMageeAHA) for the latest updates in the humanist movement. And we’ll try to keep posts about what we ate that day to a minimum.
