Follow me, Tweet Tweet
For those of you who aren't on Twitter, or don't follow me on Twitter, you have missed some terrific nonprofit/NGO tech resources, volunteerism resources and outreach advice. So I'm listing some of my recent tweets or retweets, to point my blog readers - nonprofits, NGOs, government agencies, communications managers, etc. - to some of these resources. This will also give you an idea of the kind of tags I use, and that others use, to reach farther on Twitter than just those who subscribe to our feeds:

In case you were wondering - while my Twitter account focuses on my areas of expertise and professional interests, I'm not always serious with my Twitter activities:
HESherman - Howard Sherman
Seems to be one of those moments when I should remind everyone that I don’t discuss @thetonyawards on Twitter. Route queries to that feed.

@HESherman won't discuss @thetonyawards on Twitter. Not even what he might be wearing?!
25 May
@jcravens42 For you, I will break my rule. I will be wearing the same tux I have worn for every Tony Awards show since 2004. That is all.
