One of my favourite Bloggers, Fr. John
Zuhlsdorf, recently posted a list of Cardinals who are on Twitter and ranked them in the
order of which Cardinal has the most followers. I was very pleased to see a
familiar name in position number ...
1. Gianfranco Ravasi: 18,224 followers
2. Odilo Scherer: 13,462 followers
3. Angelo Scola: 7,025 followers
4. Sean Patrick O’Malley: 3,672 followers
5. Timothy Dolan: 2,060 followers
Yes, yes, I know it’s not a competition… but
heck, I would still like to see our Cardinal featuring right up there; wouldn't you? Why don't we try and radically increase his number of followers on Twitter... just for fun, of course.
If you are on Twitter, please do follow
