Tweeting Away

My how time flies.  I can’t believe it was almost a year ago that we here at the Law Library of Congress entered into the twitterverse.

Last October, Matt announced our @LawLibCongress account:

The purpose of the Twitter feed, according to the Law Library, is “to engage Members of Congress, their staff, other law libraries, students, professors, librarians, and researchers.  … It will also serve as a venue for feedback on our material.”

A week later, a commenter added:

I’m impressed with how much they’re using Twitter to engage with their audience. Hopefully they’ll keep it up.

A year and almost 1,000 tweets later, I hope we’ve continued to engage our audience.  It’s been a fun year watching the number of followers grow to the over 2,500 that we have today.

So, what do you think?  Are we meeting your expectations?
