Twitter

I confess I used to be pretty skeptical about Twitter. Many of the tweets (messages) I received seemed to be irrelevant. I simply couldn't see what people were raving about. It wasn't until I created a separate professional Twitter account and started following people who are national speakers or who are also interested in media and technology that I started to appreciate the value of Twitter.
