	The best ideas are born of necessity. In an age of beleaguered voter apathy, communication is a must.
	Today's voters demand representatives who are open, accessible and accountable. The Internet is making this possible like never before.
	Enter Twitter. Its beauty is its brevity. Simply, "What are you doing?" Right now, in this present moment, in 140 characters or less.
	This is stuff people want to know, and it's a lot of fun! MPs get an excuse to fiddle with their phones, voters get informed. Everybody wins!
	This channel goes both ways. MPs and voters alike are finding Twitter a great place to connect and swap thoughts with unprecedented ease.
	TweetCommons is a non-profit trans-partisan initiative. We believe that open information is a democratizing force. This is our contribution.

Still wondering what Twitter is all about? We've assembled this helpful guide to assist with any further questions you might have!
