Twitter- and Facebook-user here, and I look forward to seeing links to
those sites on the OSM page. Perhaps a 'Share this map' button alongside
the Permalink/Sharelink links (it's basically an extension of the same
idea, but saves the effort of doing copy and paste).

I think it is ok for us to post stuff to Twitter, and I think we

have a widget that shows the most recent twitter mentions).
I would dislike a "follow us on Twitter" button because it will
only show the Twitter signup page if someone doesn't have an
account, and therefore make it look like you had to subscribe to
Twitter in order to read our news - which is thankfully not true.
I think this would be missing our audience. If you're illiterate (a
group Twitter caters specifically to), what are the odds you're going
to be able to make use of a map, much less contribute constructively
to OSM?
