News happens 24 hours a day, and Social Networking & RSS Feeds are just another way we're connecting with Press Democrat readers as stories break.

Though each reporter works a little differently, tools like Twitter and Facebook allow them to update users with story links, observations, thoughts and personal commentary. RSS feeds allow you to aggregate relevant stories to read at your convenience.

Think of it as the news behind the news.

All of these services are free to users and we encourage feedback and interaction.
