Loving the "disrupt" wording! Thanks for the tweaks. We'll start getting these out tomorrow in the AM.

Hey there love these btw.
Maybe for we use we can use that – its satirical at this point– some of that Silicon slang for the Google tweet.
".@Google disrupts the tech world with new parent company, Alphabet"
For the Hiroshima tweet, I think we can just cut it down to:
"70 years later, Japan & the world remembers victims of #Hiroshima & #Nagasaki" <-- NOTE: not trending as significantly anymore and we have our own hashtag to account for.
Can say something for the North Korea tweet using FB/G suggestion - I don't find it too curt at all.
LGTM

Hey all,
We just published "News on Wikipedia: Google reshuffles into Alphabet, Japan remembers, and more" to the Wikimedia blog. URL:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/11/google-reshuffles-alphabet-japan-remem...
We plan to send out five pieces of social for this story, spread through the rest of the week to keep things timely.
Please do comment for tone.
*Twitter:*
• @Google surprised the tech world with new parent company Alphabet. #NewsOnWikipedia • Japan remembered the victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki this week. #NewsOnWikipedia • Egypt's Suez Canal reopened last week following a makeover. #NewsOnWikipedia • Typhoon Soudelor caused $1.4bn in damage in Taiwan and China. #NewsOnWikipedia • North Korea will officially move to "Pyongyang Time" on Saturday. #NewsOnWikipedia
*Facebook/G+:*
• Looks like Google will need to Alphabetise their servers... #NewsOnWikipedia • Japan commemorated 70 years since the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the Second World War. #NewsOnWikipedia • The New Suez Canal doubles the waterway's ship capacity in less than a year. #NewsOnWikipedia • Typhoon Soudelor made landfall in Taiwan and China last week, killing at least 29. #NewsOnWikipedia • North Korea is moving away from Japan—half an hour away, in fact. #NewsOnWikipedia
...Since that last one might be a little too curt:
• North Korean clocks will go half an hour back on Saturday. #NewsOnWikipedia
best, Joe
