  2. The PBS NewsHour team decided to craft a way for the public to help report the facts of their airport security experience so we could better report the story for Thanksgiving of 2010. Thus, the #TSATime hashtag was born on Twitter.
  3. I wrote about how we pulled off the project in PBS MediaShift. (Hint: collaboration and planning were key)
  4. We revived the hashtag in 2011 to take advantage of the work we had already done.
