That photo will generate via a link post, and it may be better to get the article out there.
I move we tweet soon:
Happy Ada Lovelace Day, honoring the woman often regarded as the first computer programmer. http://buff.ly/1OvaKBu
and circle back on a STEM tweet. And post to Facebook:
Happy Ada Lovelace Day, honoring a leading figure for women in science, technology, engineering and math who is also often regarded as the first computer programmer. http://buff.ly/1OvaKBu
