Everyone by now has heard of Twitter. On the small chance that there is a soul who doesn't know -Twitter is a microblogging, meanning each post is 140 characters or less. It's pretty amazing how much could be said in 140 characters. This I consider a big advantage of Twitter -you could learn to express yourself clearly and conscicesly, a good skill to have for bloggers. I learned, for example, that word "that" could be eliminated most of the time. English majors could disagree.

Another benefit of Twitter, is connecting with people with similar interests. Being on Twitter makes it so much easier, since there is already a common interest. In the short time on Twitter I met a lot of new people. I also reconnected with my old and new Active rain pals.

The first Twitter Princeton meet up is on May 15, at 6:30 pm in Princeton NJ. You don't have to be from Princeton, or on Twitter now to join us. Please let me know in the comment or through e-mail if you would like to come.

I am fsechzer on Twitter if you'd like to follow.

Hope to see my new freinds soon.

That's a great idea to have a Princeton meetup on Twitter. I wonder if we could do something like that in westchester...

I understand that Tweeter has a place for connecting with others of the same interests. I am not sure how to apply it to my business..... yet....

Ruthmarie, it took some time to pull it together. First I asked informally from through DM to see if there was any interest. I organized it after several people started asking for it. I think similar meet ups could be organized anywhere.

Charles, it's not a business networking in the traditional sense. I would say it's social and just getting to know people. I think people would be reluctant to participate, if it was any more then social.

Hi Faina- I have been missing your blog. I have been sidetracked and can not make my comments the way that I want to.

Faina, hope you get a good turnout for your Twitter meet up today.  You never know what interesting and exciting people you may meet.  I've had a lot of new followers on Twitter, many of whom I don't recognize at all.
