Twitter handle: LIChistory
It's the section of Queens, NY where I grew up. I had known they had a strong history and preservation component while I was growing up and apparently in 1985 they incorporated and now have a vibrant website, photo section, facebook page and even a twitter feed.
Some recent tweets:
- Triborough Bridge Walking Tour http://t.co/Bl61ENI #constant contact
- Do you have a story about the Triborough Bridge? The MTA would like to hear it. http://t.co/fy9HrOX
- Last days for our exhibit on 30th Avenue. Watch a segment from our opening http://t.co/iJQEMiw
Very local and very interesting and meaningful I think to the people who love the area.
BTW, I've had a twitter feed for a few years now, and really only used it to receive news of library and archives bloggers with updates. I'll make an effort to tweet now, even if it's only retweeting!
New feature: See my recent feed on my blog.
1935 Maypole Celebration from "The Greater Astoria Historical Society" (We were still doing this when I was a kid!)
