Wow. I feel like you’ve laid down the smack on my Tweet, Will.Just to clarify my post was not meant to be pitisove or negative. I actually agree with what the Brooklyn Museum is doing with 1stfans as long as the content has artistic value.What people sometimes fail to realize is that coordinating the various social media tools (especially in innovative ways) results in human resource costs for nonprofit organizations. Yes, Twitter is free, but scheduling guest artists to Tweet in interesting and thought-provoking ways is not free.I think $20 per year is a very fair cost if the BM is able to offer additional opportunities for engagement.I’d much rather pay for what the BM is offering than get inundated with free Tweets about upcoming events. Boring.-@BStephenson
