Twitter

Are you twittering? Twitter is a mini-blog, where posts are a maximum of 140 characters. You can post what you are doing, or use it to share info and follow the influencers. You can follow event and meeting planners as they go through their work day.

You can use twitter on your computer or on your cell phone. When you start following someone, you can check to see who they are following and who is following them - to find new people to follow.

It is free. Sign up at: http://www.twitter.com
