Someone asked the other day … are you always on Twitter? Hmmm … yes, I guess I’m on Twitter quite a bit. Twitter allows me to interact with so many friends/followers in different ways. Being on Twitter has taught me how to move my new friendships up the Twitter Relationship Stairway. In keeping with the idea of moving up the stairs, I wanted to share with my community an opportunity to take our relationships a step further. Being on Twitter is an excellent way to listen, learn, participate, make friends, bond and share incredible insight. And, as I review my calendar in the upcoming months, one more excellent way to move up the Twitter stairway is to meet my New York City friends/followers in person.

I just finished the book, Twittfaced, by Jacob Morgan and Josh Peters. I think it’s a good social media 101 handbook that provides you with a breakdown of social media tools, platforms and opportunities that are not overwhelming to the reader, but organized so that the information is straightforward and easy to read. I had the pleasure of interviewing co-author, Jacob Morgan. Jacob is a social media consultant and the Principle of Chess Media Group, a social business consultancy, focused on strategy, creativity, and results.
