JUST ANNOUNCED!!

The Pope now tweets. according to CBS news tonight.  He "tweeted" his first message late yesterday, if the news is correct.

and it took me until a month ago to figure out Facebook :(

:sigh:

    I don't tweet either, lol.  FB status messages alone meet my stalkable quota.

    I'm in Rome at the moment, so I found a link to that story loooking up times for the Angelus today.  So pleased that we have a Pope who both fosters the tradition of the Latin Mass (among other things) and ushers the community into the age of social media.  What a great leader to see the value in the old and the new!
