[Wikimediaindia-l] social media to use

[Pradeep Mohandas]

hi,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Can you share where you have
spotted this? We're not planning to have a twitter account, just a hashtag -
#wci11. This is also being used on identi.ca by a few users and we encourage
this.

We'd like to correct the error.

warm regards,
Pradeep Mohandas
