Shannon,
Thanks for sharing this – really useful! Now I need to figure out the details you’ve shared because I haven’t played with this yet. I’ve definitely become a big fan of Twitter – especially since I’m using hootsuite to coordinate my tweets with multiple sites. I use twitter to feed everything else – I visit Facebook occasionally so see what people who don’t tweet are up to. I’m loving keeping in touch with people this way!
