Not All A-Twitter Over This One
Ok, first it was linkedin.com. Last week, it was zoominfo.com . And this week, I’m learning that all the world is a-twitter.
For those who are still getting used to blogging, there’s a whole wide world out there trying to get you even more connected. Linkedin.com, as I’ve written before, is sort of an adult’s version of myspace.com.
