The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) now has a fan page on the popular social networking site, Facebook, and the microblogging service Twitter. Become a fan or follow us to receive the latest news, videos, photos and other media, event announcements, job postings and more.

You can find NIST on Facebook at facebook.com/usnistgov and on Twitter as usnistgov.

We hope the new site will be a good way to keep up with what's happening at NIST, to network with others interested in NIST activities, and to submit your comments and questions.
