FYI, City of Hope 24 hour Danceathon raised over $129K and boy does my body hurt!! But good fun! Thanks to all my friends on Facebook and Twitter for getting the word out for me and donating to a great cause in such short notice! The power of social marketing at work!
So now I’m going to take a step back. I’ve written about Twitter in regards to politics, charities and even comedy. And the question I’m hearing more and more, time and again is, “What is this Twitter, tweet thing?” So here’s a succinct description written by a colleague of mine at Supanova Training in the UK.
She goes on to to talk about how a local Chinese restaurant is using Twitter as a tool to generate more business by driving readers to their website. Once there it’s up to them to keep them there! I would just like to add that once you get involved with Twitter their any number of Twitter tools out there that help you organize, automate, search and manage your Twitter accounts! Have fun tweeting and if you aren’t already, feel free to follow me on Twitter

Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users’ updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 bytes in length. Updates are displayed on the user’s profile page and delivered to other users who have signed up to receive them. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends (delivery to everyone being the default). Users can send and receive updates via the Twitter website, SMS, RSS (receive only), or through applications such as Tweetie, Twitterrific, Twitterfon, TweetDeck and Feedalizr. The service is free to use over the web, but using SMS may incur phone services provider fees.
