Amid what has been a flurry of Twitter update news today, the site has launched an @Gov account to track creative and effective uses of Twitter for civic engagement. This is a feature I recently mentioned Twitter was lacking (when writing about Google’s G+ guide for politics and government). This could help source and share some great content, very interested to see where it goes…
Welcome to @! Stay tuned for best practices, case studies and other updates from the Twitter Government & Politics team…
