CHEA is now using Twitter, a free social networking service that enables users to send and read short messages on their computer, Blackberry or cell phone. Updates on CHEA events, news releases and other information can be received via Twitter. These Twitter messages will supplement emails from CHEA; you will still receive information directly from CHEA on news and events of importance to our members and supporters.

To access the CHEA Page on Twitter, either click on the button “Follow CHEAnews on Twitter” on the home page of the CHEA Website (www.chea.org) or go to www.twitter.com/cheanews. Once you’ve visited the CHEA Page on Twitter, you can sign up to automatically receive new messages from CHEA by clicking on the “Follow” button.

We hope that you will find Twitter to be a new and faster way to keep up with CHEA’s activities and events.
