NEW YORK (AP) -- The NYPD honored police officers killed on Sept. 11 on Twitter and Facebook.

The department on Tuesday posted messages on Twitter once an hour for each NYPD victim, with links to individual memorial Facebook pages.

The messages were expected to be posted before the officers' names were officially read at the 11th anniversary ceremony.

The police department's official Twitter account is @NYPDnews. Each tweet is searchable through "#neverforget."

The NYPD launched Facebook and Twitter accounts this year.
