Bring on the new evangelization, 140 characters at a time! But there's more!
In the second Papal tweet, he asks a question (presumably that he received through the many #pontifex questions that were submitted) ...
How can we celebrate the Year of Faith better in our daily lives?
— Benedict XVI (@Pontifex) December 12, 2012
... which he answers below.
By speaking with Jesus in prayer, listening to what he tells you in the Gospel and looking for him in those in need

... et lux in tenebris lucet, et tenebræ eam non comprehenderunt.
Update: Since I first posted, he has added four more in the question-response format. He's hooked!
How can faith in Jesus be lived in a world without hope?
— Benedict XVI (@Pontifex) December 12, 2012
Answer:
We can be certain that a believer is never alone. God is the solid rock upon which we build our lives and his love is always faithful

Question:
Any suggestions on how to be more prayerful when we are so busy with the demands of work, families and the world?
— Benedict XVI (@Pontifex) December 12, 2012
Answer:
Offer everything you do to the Lord, ask his help in all the circumstances of daily life and remember that he is always beside you
