The brainy overlords in this joint have come up with yet ANOTHER fantastic way for you guys to stay completely up-to-date on everything going on in our fair city, making use of everyone's favorite microblogging crack cocaine tool.

Give it up for rvatweets! WHOOP WHOOP!

The concept is simple: we track (and sometimes create) tags going around on twitter. When you visit rvatweets, you can follow those popular tags all in one place. We've also pulled in flickr so you can get words AND pictures. We're all about the multimedia approach over here.

If you'd like to contribute to the conversations, just use the tags on your tweets and photos.

We're also integrating this into RVANews, adding locally relevant tags to our stories so you can monitor the conversation right alongside the articles. Here's a good example of that.

We're very excited and hope you enjoy it.

So get to tagging. And tweeting because if you stop, @scottpharr's brain might atrophy.

(Oh, and if you're not following RVANews yet, you should do that. We say great things sometimes.)
