The Pope to join Twitter

This final note today.

The Pope’s gonna get on Twitter. It’s a whole new kind of follower — yeah, you probably heard that one already.

Could be tricky, though, squeezing even a trimmed-down papal encyclical into 140 characters. Especially if his handle turns out be, as expected, @BenedictusPPXVI — his name in Latin. Plus, that’s 16 characters right there.
