That means you'll be more connected to Michigan Radio, and your voice will matter in the ongoing discussion. The whole Michigan Radio team is active on our social media sites. On Facebook and Twitter, we'll try to include a first name or initials when posting updates so that you know who's talking. You can find more info on our Staff page. If we're not adequately serving your preferred social network, please contact web content administrator Nick Meador at ndmeador@umich.edu. The Michigan Radio Fan Page on Facebook is the recommended place for in-depth interaction. Here you'll find links to big stories and events, fun excursions, photos from the station, RSS news feeds, and more. You can ask us questions and interact with other fans. You'll even find podcast players for Michigan Radio and NPR! We also have fan pages for these Michigan Radio projects: Facing the Mortgage Crisis Generation Y Michigan Twitter is evolving into a dynamic public forum between journalism organizations and citizens in the audience. We send our state news headlines to our Twitter account with convenient links to articles on our website. To give us a news tip or ask a question, just post an update with the term "@michiganradio" (or send us a direct message). If you re-tweet one of our stories, please use hashtags (or keywords) like these: #news, #michigan, #npr. That will help others find the stories. Here's a list of our other Twitter accounts: Jack Lessenberry West Side Stories Artpod The Environment Report Michigan Radio News Michigan Radio Arts Facing the Mortgage Crisis Michigan Radio Picture Project Generation Y Michigan Three Things We're developing a collection of stock photography taken by the Michigan Radio audience.
