The birdsite hashtag #a2council which you can view at https://twitter.com/hashtag/a2council is trending in my timeline there.

At a rate of about a tweet a minute, Ann Arbor has taken to watching and commenting on their local government via birdsite. While I admire this civic outpouring, I am concerned that birdsite's tinygrams sometimes don't always contribute to all of the discourse as they might best do.

OTOH, tt's a lot faster to type 140 than 500, and as such birdsite is nearly realtime.
