Re: [amsat-bb] To Tweet or Not to Tweet
I have a twitter account. I have posted exactly two times, and that was just to see that it worked. I follow (let's see if you see a pattern): The official feed of the Los Angeles County Fire Dept. The official feed of the Los Angeles City Fire Dept. The official feed of the Glendale Fire Dept. (where I work) The official feed of the Glendale Police Dept. The official feed of Glendale Water and Power The official feed of the Glendora Police Dept. (where I live) The official feed of the Cal Fire The official feed of the Cal OES The official feed of MetroLink (how I get to work) SpaceFlightNow SpaceX RocketLab My wife (not that she ever posts anything.
Twitter never alerts to my phone - I have to go looking for it.

I have fundamentally opposed to TWITTER doe to the NONSENSE on it! However, I see many references posted here.
I am having second thoughts about signing up. PLEASE, will someone direct me to WHO I should follow regarding AMSAT and possibly others.
Many thanks,

Throw in using a 3rd party client that kills the ads, stupid timeline "featured tweets", and other nonsense they throw in the official client. Tweetdeck on the web is way better than twitter.com is, even thought it is owned by Twitter.
