The history nerd in me declares it awesome that the Massachusetts Historical Society is going to tweet JQA's journal two hundred years after it was written. Huzzah!

But that’s exactly what the Massachusetts Historical Society is going to make happen starting Wednesday. The kicker’s that every tweet will be formulated by President Adams (@JQAdams_mhs himself.

Quoted: Sign in with Twitter is the pattern of authentication that allows users to connect their Twitter account with third-party services in as little is one click. It utilizes OAuth and although the flow is very similar, the authorization URL and workflow differs slightly as described below.

Quoted: The successful crash-landing of crippled U.S. Airways flight 1549 yesterday by Captain C.B. “Sully” Sullenberger is one of the most uplifting stories of the new year — and social media sites have been part of the story.
