Without doing much we have amassed quite a large twitter following and we wanted to say thanks to all our followers and make sure everyone else knew we were on twitter. As some of our followers might have noticed we have been much more active over the last few weeks (thanks to new smartphones) and we hope to take our twitter account up a notch.
In addition to the basic “On the blog:” tweets, look to our twitter account for transit related retweets, photos, videos, and blurbs that might not make it onto the blog but are interesting or funny nevertheless. Our tweeting will pick up during transit related events and meetings or when major travel disruptions occur. We hope our twitter account gives everyone, you and use alike, the ability to communicate and chat in a more fluid and casual manner.
So if you aren’t following us go here and add us. We use our twitter account to follow news from specific sources so please forgive us if we don’t add you back. However, if you want to get our attention just tag us at @seatransitblog and we’ll get back to you.
Also for your information there’s an effort on the back burner to get all this integrated, but for various technology reasons Sherwin (@sherwinhlee) and Oran (@oranv) have active feeds, heavily transit-oriented, and yet not part of the seatransitblog feed. Check those out too!



You’re saying that as though many of us weren’t following you already.
We certainly have a lot of readers following us already but we have never really announced our twitter account and before we put the effort into make our twitter account better we want to make sure everyone knows about it. I think the last time we linked to our twitter account in a blog post was for Link’s opening.
Thanks for the reminder! (And my Seattle pub recommendations to The Overhead Wire were pretty similar to yours – the College Inn is still a favorite must-stop whenever I’m back in the Emerald City.)
I’m @cruickshank (warning: most tweets are about California politics). Likely of more interest to this blog’s readership, the California High Speed Rail Blog is @cahsr, and Californians For High Speed Rail is @ca4hsr.
There’s also @seatransnoblog, which is the same as above except it doesn’t have any “On the blog” tweets.
I am already following @masstransit which I thought was this blog’s account. What accounts should I follow/unfollow to avoid duplication?
