24. What’s this Twitter thing anyway? Twitter is a micro-blog where you comment in 140 characters or less The object is to follow people in your service area and engage them so they will follow you back. It’s like a cocktail party on the web (and without cocktails!) It’s a relationship starter. Again, it’s all about the engagement!
25. Why does Twitter work? Consumers like instant information that finds them. If they follow you, they will know what your daily specials are without having to look for them. Consumers like to be acknowledged. A fun interaction with a brand creates a loyalty TO that brand. People care more about what their friends and network thinks than about what you say about yourself. The more you can get people to talk about you, the better!

It allows users to “show” their network to others, connect to people they already know, and establish new business relationships with others connected to their network. Users can also connect to alumni, industry, or other professional groups. LinkedIn groups can be created in any subject and by any member of LinkedIn. Some groups are specialized groups dealing with a narrow domain or industry whereas others are very broad and generic in nature.
