Engage Russia Now Twittering

The Engage Russia Team has now began Twittering!
What is twitter and how does it work?
I am not quite sure how to answer that, but basically it is another internet based communication tool for updating others about what you are doing, when you are actually doing it.
For example - next week Marc, Tim and Jimmy will be traveling to Surgut, Russia to learn more about the work among the Khanti People of Russia. During their trip they will be posting on this blog daily (depending on internet capabilities) AND Twittering every few hours, using Marc's iphone.
There is a box on the right hand site of this blog site that will be updated with frequent, shorter updates about where we are, what we are doing, who we are talking to, etc. in almost real time.
Following us on twitter will be like being there on the trip with us, almost.
So, follow the blog, the twitter, the upcoming website, as we together continue to ENGAGE RUSSIA!

Tim for the Engage Russia Team
