NYPD social media: a touching tribute to fallen brothers

On a recent post on Mashable, New York’s finest are commemorating their fallen brothers of September 11^th with Twitter. The NYPD are honoring the victims of the horrific terrorist attacks eleven years ago by tweeting the name and rank of a fallen comrade and linking back to a more detailed Facebook page along with #neverforget. September 11^th will be a day that all Americans will never forget. The NYPD’s use of social media is more than just a status update or a celebrity tweet. This honor to fallen heroes reminds us all that social media can still be a platform to instill good amongst us. Let us honor these fallen heroes and retweet the names of the fallen heroes and #neverforget.
