July AccessWorld(R) Now AvailableThis month's Access World newsletter from the 
American Foundation for the Blind has a good article on getting started with 
Twitter.  It also tells about how you can link your Twitter and Face Book 
together.  It also mentions about how you can update them from your phone.
