Riotbeard Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 This is a bit of a shameless plug, but I just started a twitter account for weird medicine quotes, I come accross in the process of research. Please follow me https://twitter.com/AntiquatedMeds. Also If you know of any other good history twitter accounts (or have one), post them here.

czesc Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) @DavidRArmitage, the head of the Harvard history department, usually has good stuff. Also, @appendixjournal, which is an academic history-oriented online magazine. A lot of historians on Twitter also use the hashtag #twitterstorians and you can usually find a lot of stuff that way (maybe as a way to start looking for people/organizations on Twitter in your field).

C&C Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 John C. Calhoun: https://twitter.com/JohnCCalhoun It's always entertaining to read through tweets that mention Calhoun and Jackson.

Katzenmusik Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Yes! The Appendix is my favorite history thing on the whole internet. The Public Domain Review (@PublicDomainRev) is also great.

anoraklibrarian Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I'll plug my own work; I'm deep into the world of federal government social media, and I put out tons of stuff as the African Burial Ground National Monument (http://www.twitter.com/afburialgrndnps) and Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Monument (http://www.twitter.com/harrietubmannps) That said, there is the official list of hundreds of historians on twitter which can be found here: http://www.activehistory.co.uk/historians-on-twitter/index.php?page=1
