<\/a>As you are aware, many Hobbit<\/em> cast members have their own twitter accounts.\u00a0 These are\u00a0the official accounts; as far as we know, each actor manages their twitter personally, offering a great way to keep up with them.<\/p>\n- \n

TheOneRing.net also publishes unique twitter content, moderated by a select group, which can be more fun and reactive to trends than the home page. Our wide volunteer staff work in a wide variety of industries (and countries), which makes for a robust and diverse community, brought together by a mutual love of Tolkien.\u00a0 (And various staffers have their own twitter accounts, which can easily be found when they are linked to\u00a0– from time to time! – on TORn’s twitter.)<\/p>\n

You can also follow us on Facebook or Google-plus if you desire! * TORn Facebook<\/a> * TORn G+<\/a><\/p>\n
There are a FEW folks who also maintain Facebook pages, but beware – many of the cast Facebook pages out there are run by managers, simply reposting tweets, or are rarely updated, or are run by fans.\u00a0 This doesn’t mean they aren’t legit – John Callen’s Facebook page, for example, is run by a fan who became a friend.\u00a0\u00a0 This lucky fan tells us:<\/p>\n
“Though I never met John Callen in person, we have talked a lot and word by word we got to know each other a lot. He is the most amazing guy ever; always humble and down to earth. So, being such a gigantic fan of him for years, I’ve asked him if he will be ok if I handle his page, which at first wasn’t official. He was more then happy to have a friend run this page, so I asked him to make it official, to which he said that it’s no trouble as long as I consult with him. I chat with him almost every day, and John, being the most amazingly sweet man he is, always gives me info himself and on the films.\u00a0 He also comments on pictures and links regularly, and I\u00a0 frequently ask him of his opinion of how I run the page, to which (to my great fan-boysh joy) he is more then happy.”<\/p>\n
So, you can find out what your favourite cast and crew members are up to, perhaps via Facebook, and often via Twitter.\u00a0 Of course, here at TheOneRing.net we try to stay on top of all the latest news – but sometimes it’s best to hear it direct from the horse’s mouth! And in turn, you can share any festive and New Year wishes you desire, through the twitter accounts above.<\/p>\n
