Ok this is just a crazy episode. I thought I would try to do a "Live" stream a bit. Problem was I didn't let anyone know I was doing one. So I thought I would practice a bit. This episode was me, talking to me, about twitter. The power of it, some ways I use it, and what I can find in 20 minutes on the web.
Please check out my YouTube channel to see the stream and what I was looking at. Thanks for trying this one with me. Please leave a comment or connect with me so I know what you think!
