TSA afraid to hear what we have to say?
If you wish to voice your opinions to the folks that operate the blog and other social media sections, you can reach them through AskTSA at Twitter or The Book of Face. I believe they are trying to generate a more central architecture for all of our social media outlets, which makes sense from an organizational POV. I am about 98% certain that the change was not because of what passengers were saying, but a difference in the way that they approach social media in general. Some teams want to do direct contact (like the Blog was - to an extent), others want to provide information without distraction (like more traditional governmental sites), some want to provide direct information in a "media" style, like in magazines or the "Life" section of a newspaper. There are other versions, and degrees of each, but those are the primary categories that appear to be most pervasive in government. I just hope we continue to put our good content, and stay on message, maybe expand to include more travel tips, more frequently. The blog post that had the most hits consistently was the one from years ago about the razors - literally, every month, we had more hits for that than anything else. If we work to consistently update our travel tips so that they remain current, it would be a positive development.

We will see where we are headed.
