What I’ve Been Tweeting

Ever since AAN dove back into the Twitter waters a month or so ago, I’ve come across many interesting or amusing industry-related items that aren’t quite meaty enough to warrant the full AAN.org treatment.

With that — and the fact that I know not all of you are among our 897 Twitter followers — in mind, I will bring some of those items to the Staff Blog in a new semi-regular column, “What I’ve Been Tweeting.”
