"Breaking News" from the MSU Retirees Association


     Twitter is a news & information sharing service, and MSURA is using Twitter to share news, events, announcements, photos, & videos with MSU retirees.
     Come and see for yourself:   http://twitter.com/MSURetireesAsso
     You do NOT need a Twitter account, and you do not have to provide any personal information in order to use MSURA's Twitter page.  Just click on the web site link above.  It is that easy!

     Be aware that web links on Twitter are "shortened" in order to conserve space, and a web site's link may look something like this:  ow.ly/98OTX   (note that in a shortened web link, it is very important that you use upper and lower case letters exactly as shown in the link).  You can click on it like you would any normal-looking link.

     If at some point in the future you decide to open a Twitter account in order to make better use of Twitter, just enter your name, your email address, and a password in the "Sign Up" box at Twitter.  Couldn't be simpler!
     As a Twitter member, you can "Follow" MSURA's postings ("Tweets") on Twitter.  MSURA's "handle" on Twitter is:   @MSURetireesAsso   (on a user's handle, caps are not important)
