Where Have You Gone, Twitter Handle "disastersrus"?

Apparently, Craig Fugate, the Federal Emergency Management Agency head, is hanging up his old Twitter handle. While I suppose it makes sense for him to harness the larger following and coordinated messaging of FEMA's official Twitter feed, and to work within FEMA's extant and already impressive social media efforts, I kind of regret the loss of a social media effort that an agency head started himself. It's a good model to have agency leaders actively and personally engaged in this sort of thing, so it's too bad Fugate is stepping away from it.
