That's pretty darn cool, not gonna lie, and that is probably the kind of content that Twitter handles well. Non-contentious, informative, inoffensive, scientific stuff. I mean, who's going to disagree or argue about a cool archeological story and its fun connection to an important piece of literature? There's nothing to argue about.Twitter is my main form of social media. I find it to be civilised. It depends entirely on who you choose to follow, so it's not like ENWorld where, by default, you see everyone's posts.
To give an example of the positive and interesting aspects of twitter, see this thread about a cursed Roman ring and its connection with JRR Tolkien:
Twitter is terrible when it comes down to having discussions where different viewpoints clash, to any degree. The site's structure tends to encourage the worst kind of arguments, and the worst kind of behavior from the arguers.
