While it certainly hasn’t reached a tipping point, the number of foundation chief executives using Twitter is growing — slowly.
Jeffrey Raikes, chief executive of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, started tweeting last month. His boss, Bill Gates, has been on Twitter since January 2010.
James Knickman, head of the New York State Health Foundation, signed on recently. Alberto Ibarguen of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and Risa Lavizzo-Mourey of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation are tweeting their way to significant numbers of "followers."
