It’s being talked about on television shows…..

Sunday night “Twittering” was talked about on Desperate Housewives in context of business/marketing executives needing to understand Twitter!

It’s not going away. It’s time to pay attention to Twitter!

Five Quick Tips:
1. Content vs Fluff: It’s all about who you choose to follow. Find interesting people and follow them --- and look at who THEY are following since interesting people tend to follow interesting people.
2. Use TwitterDeck to organize your tweets.
3. iPhone users visit the App Store to find “Tweetie”
4. Assume your boss, clients, professors, friends, family, etc will find you on Twitter – tweet accordingly
5. Stop making excuses. You are NOT “too old” or too “non-techie”.
