I'd want to vary the Facebook posts a bit
since that'll get pretty samey
after a while.
The Satoru Iwata Twitter seems to undersell him a little. "Satoru Iwata,
Nintendo's president for 12 years, died this week aged 55.
#NewsOnWikipedia" might work better.

No worries. Proposed new social:
Facebook:
1. This week in #NewsOnWikipedia: can you name both of this year's
Wimbledon champs?
2. This week in #NewsOnWikipedia: Greece has agreed to hold talks
on a third bailout deal with their creditors.
3. This week in #NewsOnWikipedia: the prisoner who escaped through
a mile-long tunnel with the help of a modified motorcycle.
4. This week in #NewsOnWikipedia: the Confederate flag was removed
from South Carolina's State House grounds this week.
5. This week in #NewsOnWikipedia: Satoru Iwata, the long-time
president of Nintendo who oversaw game consoles like the GameCube and Wii,
died at the age of 55.
Twitter:
1. Can you name both of this year's Wimbledon champs?
#NewsOnWikipedia
2. Greece and the EU come together for a potential third financial
bailout. #NewsOnWikipedia
3. This prisoner escaped with a mile-long tunnel and a modified
motorcycle. #NewsOnWikipedia
4. The Confederate flag came down from South Carolina's State House
grounds this week. #NewsOnWikipedia
5. Did you own a GameCube or Wii? If so, you'll miss Satoru Iwata.

Thoughts?
