Many moons ago, I was the 1st Egyptologist on Twitter. I’m aware of how privileged I’ve been to study ancient Egypt & of my responsibility to share. Twitter helped make that possible. But the real potential of social networks is how much we can all learn from *each other*, from different voices & perspectives. We can marvel at monuments like the Great Pyramid, but I think that the communities that ordinary people build are even more impressive. I can’t wait to see what we build together here.
