Comments on: Twitter in Costa Rica Worth a Try http://www.usexpatcostarica.com/2010/06/twitter-use-costa-rica/ English Speaking Expatriates in Costa Rica Tue, 15 May 2012 05:51:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Casey http://www.usexpatcostarica.com/2010/06/twitter-use-costa-rica/comment-page-1/#comment-812 Casey Fri, 04 Jun 2010 12:17:56 +0000 http://www.usexpatcostarica.com/?p=2072#comment-812 Was ready to dismiss Twitter as one of those annoying things, until I got to this paragraph: "Twitter competes with Facebook as the dominant social network, and prefer Twitter because unlike Facebook it brings people directly to my webpage and not facebook.com. Users are also not asked to provide Twitter with detailed personal information." I'm ready to give Facebook the heave-ho, so maybe this is a good alternative. Will look into it.

FYI, the American Colony Committee, host of the annual July 4th picnic in Costa Rica, will be using Twitter to spread news about the picnic . You can follow the Committee at <a href="http://twitter.com/ACC_CR" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/ACC_CR</a>. The tweets also appear on the Committee's new web site, <a href="http://americancolonycr.com/" target="_blank">http://americancolonycr.com/</a> which has detailed info about the 2010 picnic and photos from past ones. One of the best features, courtesy of The Tico Times archives, is a collection of photos from throughout the 50 year history of the picnic. It's a fascinating view of the growth of the ex-pat community in Costa Rica. Informative article – thanks.
