Twitter, Twitter, Tweet, Tweet, There’s Work to Be Done!

Is it redundant or circular to announce you’re now Twittering on a blog? Well, in any event, we do want to announce that there is now an Enright Ridge CSA Twitter account, set up just to let members know when there is work to be done at the farm. (We think this will help the farm staff, too, because in theory they can quickly organize a work posse.)

If you are technologically inclined and want to follow us directly, we’re @EnrightCSA on Twitter. But, you can be almost a Luddite, which these days includes people who know how to get online and surf the Web (does anyone say that any more??) but not much more. If this is a better description of your computer skills, just go to our Enright CSA website and click on the orange button at left labeled Work. You’ll see the latest Twits—er, Tweets—right there on the page.

We’re hoping that this nearly instant form of mass communication will let us get the word out about work quickly and efficiently, and it will also give all of our members a better idea of when and where they are needed to get those work hours toted up.

So, look for short but sweet Tweets all full of hashmarks, acronyms, emoticons, LOLs, :-/ and all that good abbreviation stuff, letting you know what needs to be done at the farm right up to the minute, more or less.
