October 2, 2009 - MAYOR GLOVER BEGINS TWEETING

Today Shreveport Mayor Cedric B. Glover announced his use of the social networking application Twitter, making the following statement:

“I am excited to begin using Twitter as a way to foster more connectedness with my office among residents. So many great technological enhancements are allowing us to connect and communicate more efficiently, and I am eager to use this tool to keep citizens informed on the progress we’re making across our wonderful city. Today is a great time to begin as I travel to the U.S. Conference of Mayors Leadership Meeting in Seattle, Washington. I hope you will follow me on Twitter to read about my experience.”

Twitter is a social networking application whereby users share short, 140-character messages and relate current events in real-time. Everyone is invited to follow the Mayor on Twitter at username “MayorGlover” or www.twitter.com/MayorGlover.
