Listen to Msgr. Paul Tighe’s excellent and entertaining keynote address at the Catholic New Media Conference taking place in Boston this weekend.
It offers an interesting glimpse behind the scenes of the Holy See’s new media endeavours, as well as the way in how they want to relate to and work with us Catholic bloggers and other users of social media (from the Pope down to the average joe sharing his thoughts with the wider world via the Internet).
Msgr. Paul Tighe is the secretary of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications and as such he has been involved with the creation of the papal Twitter account, the News.va website, the Pope app, and other social media efforts.

Hi Mark,
I was trying to find some way of contacting you by email, but I didn’t see any on the blog. I am a seminarian from Canada and I have a question about being Catholic in the Netherlands. Would you mind emailing me? (I’m not sure if you can see my email, but I had to enter it in order to post this comment.)
