Seven Reasons Why Twitter is a Great Social Media Resource

One of the students who attended our Social Media panel at Boston’s Emerson College Tuesday, April 2, Pamela Sieple wrote a wonderfully concise article about Twitter and why it’s a great resource. She’s right. Twitter goes far beyond its “What are you doing?” roots as anyone who uses it will tell you.

Pamela says Twitter is a great resource for the latest news, feedback on immediate thoughts or needs, a basis for networking, a channel through which live news coverage can be had and, of course, a bit of self-promotion. Give it a read and forward it to everyone you know who’s jaded about the purpose and benefits of Twitter.
