Slightly local interest but others may be interested that we do things like this. Wondering what folks think about a last call "need something to do tonight?" Message for the legal talk at the office tonight. Straw man tweet:
Need something to do tonight in San Francisco? WMF Legal hosts a panel on copyright and mass digitalization at 6! http://wikievent.org
( I also tweeted similarly from my personal account if we wanted a retweet, I imagine Yana and a couple of the panel attendees did too. Personally I think a direct tweet is better though.)

LGTM - Personally I prefer "Last week, a historic agreement was signed..."
rather then "A historic agreement ..... last week." for the first 3 but
that's mostly a style thing and so no pressure :)

@New Horizons should link the official NASA page
<https://www.facebook.com/new.horizons1/timeline>, perhaps tag that?
